Can't find those, either. In fact, I found a website that explicitly states XB1 and PS4 don't have any public numbers for the market.
Yeah, I was understating a bit, especially since Europe isn't Nintendo's strongest market generally.
It's approximately 1,7% of the whole population, which is 29 million. I don't know if that's a high percentage compared to other countries.
If I recall correctly, Canada is an especially good market for Nintendo has higher sales per person than the US generally.
I remember start of ps3 was bad. Bad and not mzny games and expensive to buy. It sold more once it got the wiimotes on it. Same for xbox with kinect
Yep, PS3 seems to have done about 250k-300k a year later in its life. Switch is currently at an average of about 200k-250k (500k in 2 years and 4 months), so it's a little slower than PS3's peak years.
Well, it's explained in the OP, so no need to wonder anymore!
Right, my comment was purely for the Benelux area. And I didn't know about the price, that really must have hindered it a lot. Crazy expensive (it explains why so many people of my age had a GameCube lol).
hahahhaha I think most people who do not leave in the area would never know what it would stand for without any context.
It is an incredibly common term in the Netherlands. Funny how people outside the Benelux have never even heard of it. I guess that's how these things sometimes work.
Yeah, I think so, too. It's the first time ever that Nintendo has ever given out numbers, and the numbers seem close to what PS3 did in the market, so that should be a strong success for them, considering how strong PlayStation typically is in European markets.
Wii probably did even better but no real numbers ever come from that for Benelux mostly France and EU as a hole come out of that era.
