Pretty huge growth across the board last year.  PC is down in Spain  : (

Awesome work.

Now ..... can you translate or give an overview?

adese take the data from gfk

GfK for Europe ... UK software data matches Chart-Track data, so GfK must be using that for UK. Chart-Track and GfK often work together for European reports, so that's not unusual.

All the European data is up now, there's more indepth data on the Spanish market there too.

So Germany is roughly as big as France?
At first there was report that said Germany console software sales is worth 554 mln euros, some time later another report appeared saying it's not 554 mln but 904 mln. And not it's supposed to be 1.08 bln euros.
