Forums - Sales - If consoles became legal in China

WWII scars still exist between Japan and China. I could honestly see Microsoft getting the win because of this.


Very much so. I wouldn't rule out that possibility given the history you alluded to. The Chinese have very long memories.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

Not really to sure, China and Japan don't see eye to eye so much. Most likely Playstation but this would add Millions to the market. 1.35 billion to be exact.



So a massive explosion is sales and the gaming companies would turn a lot more profit. This will happen because no matter what china says, they love them some capitalism... MERICA!~

Only a small part of chinese will be able to pay for a console AND games. So maybe 100 million, that is matching the size of Japan.

10 years greatest game event!

I'd say Playstation based on the fact that Sony puts more effort in emerging markets than Nintendo and Microsoft.

Most Sony exclusives have local language support, even Turkish lol.

my guess is 3DS would rain king. hell they already have 3 limited edition XL's China exclusive



China will just make cheap knock offs of all the consoles then pirate all the games, that's how I see it anyway.



Actually i would expect a Chinese company to release their own console, Lenovo maybe?



I wouldn't rule out any of them. Sony's done great in poor markets. Right now my money would be on Nintendo winning big selling Wii Mini's and 3DS while offering Wii U for the rapidly growing wealthier class. I wouldn't rule out Sony nailing them with the PS3/PS4 combo either.



If people know anything about the moba scene in china which is huge you could say the chinese are heavily into e sports and multiplayer centric games. So you could say consoles, but it's really a pc market.
