Spain always so PS heavy? I know its EU and all, just clarifying..

Yes. Here we don't have consoles, we have "la Play".


la play hey? haha nice. I know in South Africa they used to use the term 'Playstation' as a verb.

Yeah, Spain is always one of the most heavily skewed markets.

Think it was around 9:1 in PS4's favour in terms of hardware at the last update earlier this year.

Oh YES, believe me, I live there and is kind of annoying. Not because sony wins, that´s ok, they found a strong market here, but because the absolutely lack of variety always (games included) and how closed-minded gamers are here to any system other than PS systems. At least Nintendo hanhelds are pretty popular too.

Oh that is so interesting the market is that way. Was Spain one of the first markets Sony targetted back with the original PS1?


I think it's a combination of timing and that Sony didn't treat the various European territories as an afterthought unlike Nintendo and Sega. It perfectly positioned them to pick up the people moving across from computers (Atari/Amiga etc) in the mid 90s.

It seems normal now, but in the early 90s Europe was treated like places like China are now. Sony were the first to embrace Europe and picked up talent from the home computer market at the time (Psygnosis being a big one)meaning European centric games were being released rather than just games coming across from other markets.

Probably because people find easier to homebrew'd the WiiU than pirate the X1. :P

Spanish here. Yeah, PS4 is the king without a doubt. I only have one friend with a wii u. Everybody here is crazy for the ps4. For me it is like what happened with the iphone. It was very popular some years back and you were nobody unless you had one. Same with the ps4. If you are a gamer and don't have one you are not a "true" gamer. Sony has done a great job in marketing here, they marketed the ps4 to a certain group and it worked perfectly for them.

Pretty happy with my wii u honestly. Don't care at all about spanish charts, they are depressing! I don't mind sony being number one but come on! There are more genres than football and shooters! XD

I kinda miss last gen when sony, nintendo and xbox were almost equal in sales. It was more fun.

Latina/latino people are the ones from South/Central America. Spanish people are just... white.

The term "Caucasian" is more appropiate.

The term caucasian always makes me think of Georgia and the Caucasus region

And that's ok because they are also Caucasian

Forza didnt even chart. this game is doing horrible in the UK and now spain. next week we will see how it did in the USA. but chances are this game didnt do well at all.

Destiny the taken king didnt even chart as well. surprised to see that.

and what a shitty chart. 7 of the 10 games are football. just two MGS SKU's and one mario maker.
