br here.
the whole "omg master system is still popular in Brazil!" is actually a meme. Yes we do have a manufacturer called tectoy who has the license for sega stuff and yes they kept making master systems (as well as mega drive), but master system was never as popular as memes made you believe it was. In actual times when it could have been popular it was vastly overshadowed by famiclones (which can't be calculated in quantities sold for obvious pirate reasons, but believe me, for every kid who had a master, 50 had a famiclone).
Master system was mostly the low cost sega console aunts and grandmas would get when kids asked for "the Sega" (meaning the mega drive, which is what kids wanted in the 90s, not the Master)
By the late 90s/early 00s, chipped playstations were super affordable thanks to very cheap bootleg games, and K62 computers let everyone play games on PC for cheap also thanks to piracy (and cyber cafes with LAN)
Master system was never a real mvp as people were made to believe. Sorry for breaking the illusion of brazil being magical master system land.

I don't get the context. Do they rape the Dreamcast?

I'm ignoring the fact this is a pasta.

I'm a late 90s poor kid and my first console was a Master System in the 00s, but at this time the SNES were very popular between the not so poor kids, then later the PS2 took over before the Xbox 360 and the PS3 in the 10s being very balanced from what I remember. But the famiclones really took over in the poorer households in 00s and 10s.

When looking for used consoles, today you will find more SNES (the the Jr. version locally named baby seems to not be rare) and PS2, while there's a small number of Mega Drive consoles.

This is my personal experience, but I wonder what the real numbers are. If Sega or Nintendo won the console wars in this cursed land.

A dozen of my friends had a SNES, yet I've only once saw a Mega Drive.
Same with the Dreamcast, only one friend had it, because his weird older brother bought it for the internet.

I guess Nintendo and Playstation sales aren't taken into account because most of them were imported, since no one had a license to officially resell it.

They love Playstation too, since they are poor people consoles. Rich kids had/have Nintendo and Microsoft consoles.
>t. not poor person from Brazil
