You say that is a healthy market with that kind of price for the console?With game costing as much as 200 reais or more at launch?(I have friends there that keeps me informed about such things).Brazil is not a market that can be ignored, much as Mexico, but saying that thats healthy is simply wrong.And sure, it may have sold really well in the past, but nowadays its another story, specially with the current state of the brazillian economy.

People here finance everything. It isn`t uncommon for a person with a 1200 BRL montlhy income to have a 2000 BRL phone or buy other goods priced in proportion with their income would make any european or american call them insane.

And thats healthy?Having to spend way more than your monthly income to buy a console?You can finance and get yourself in debt all you want, but thats right there is the definition of a market that is not healthy(the part that, you know, have to get in debt to be able to afford just the console).And Brazil dont sell enough consoles games to be considered a big market, but thats beyond obvious.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
