Nintendo is leaving the Brazilian market, giving the local business environment as its reason. This month, the publisher and hardware giant will cease distribution of all of its products, software and hardware, in the country.Brazil has high import taxes, especially on foreign technological goods, which Nintendo could circumvent by manufacturing its products in the country, but that’s not the only problem that the company faces. UOL Jogos, a Brazilian gaming outlet, claims Nintendo had distribution problems in the region, and that eShop sales were hampered by local banking regulations, which prevent the use of certain bank cards with storefronts that list prices in local currency but charge in US dollars.
