    Default Video Game Piracy around the world...

    http://www.iipa.com/countryreports.html

    There are some interesting reports, especially on Peru (I didn't realize SNES games were pirated that bad!) and Russia about counterfeit Nintendo games.

    Thanks for the link; I'll look it over in more depth when I find the time...interesting numbers even in 1996 for Argentina ($49M in "estimated losses" in motion pictures, $15M in music, $64M in entertainment software), which shouldn't be that surprising considering what a large nation Argentina is. Kinda depressing how so many great nations jumped the tracks in the first half of the 20th century and are still struggling to catch up...
