And don't forget Iceland

The funniest thing about this Swiss Interactive Entertainment Association is that the chairman is also the President of SCE Switzerland, and the vice-chairman is the Manager of the Home- and Entertainment Division Microsoft Switzerland.

So you can rest assure these figures are believable.

Thanks a bunch BKK. Four things to say:

1) These numbers are all small. I laugh at the Swiss and their tiny numbers.
2) DS selling software and hardware very well.
3) Wii appears to be pulling away from the PS3; they sold at near parity in the Q1, but the Wii outsold the PS3 by 25% last quarter.
4) PS2 still alive and well.

Wow, that's pretty small.

Scandinavia has 503K total hardware for Q2, with a population of 25M.

Switzerland has ~ 95K with a population of 8M.

Scandinavia isn't exactly huge on gaming, but Switzerland doesn't really game at all.

Fixed???

Excuse me?

Norway = 4.5M

Denmark = 5.5M

Sweden = 9M

Where's the last 6M?

Finland and Iceland.

Ha ha.

So the guy who chairs the company giving us these numbers is part of Sony Corp
And his "second in command" as it were, works for Microsoft.
