Notes:

- Almost certainly physical copies only.
- I'm not sure if you only get the award if you apply for it (that is, some games might have sold over 10k, 20k, 30k... but are not in the list).

Titles: 49
Activision: 17
EA: 9
26/49 = 53% of the titles listed belong to two publishers, and 70% of the top 10 ones that are new belong to them.

Sort of funny to see Move Heroes outselling Halo 4. Move Heroes was basically released straight into the bargain bin in North America.

Haha pretty much what I expect. Would be interesting to see Steam numbers from specific countries also. I think that PC presence in Finland is quite significant.

Pretty much everyone I know bought a console for one game and one game only: NHL.

And it kind of shows. "Actual" console games don't usually do that well here, only big event games like Call of Duty sell high numbers. PC gaming does relatively well though, but those numbers aren't available except for Blizzard titles that are still bought retail, because digital copies are only available through Battle.net.

Also some people order vastly cheaper console games from abroad and even more will do so now that they closed a VAT loophole (that allowed Finnish shops to sell 0% tax copies from Åland).

All in all, a weird market for console games and I probably wouldn't call it healthy. If they ever stop creating NHL/hockey games, I'm not sure we can survive.

It seems to be pretty much the same here in Finland as it was in 2010.
