Well the US has been the biggest market, normally at about 50% of all sales, but Europe/Other is about to break open. With China, South Korea, India, and Russia all starting to get big in console and handheld gaming it's about to explode. Especially what DS in particular is doing in those markets. Soon Europe/Other could be around 60% of the market, with USA bout 35% and Japan a mere 5%.
I mean we have the seperate markets as they are because at one point Japan used to be about 20% of the market, the second biggest single country market. USA was about 60% and the rest of the world the last 20%. But slowly that's changed til where now Japan is only 10%, USA is 50%, and Europe/Other is 40%. And it's still changing because finally the populations are starting to even out. Japan and USA will always have a better precentage of players but the rest of the world's popular is huge compared to those 2 countries and we'll see that happening.
You can thank the DS and PS2 for that haha.
