- nba456_ 9mo agoHow much in the Netherlands though?
- irishcoffee 9mo agoIs it relevant? "Sorry Netherlands, despite trying to expand into the global market more, this 1.1m fine is just too much." This fine is a rounding error for any big games studio.
- ben_w 9mo agoIf the fine for operating unlawfully in the Netherlands is more than the profit, not revenue, from operating in the Netherlands, that it is a reason to stop operating unlawfully in the Netherlands for even the most hard-nosed of businesses. If Epic wishes to operate at a loss in the Netherlands because this is a rounding error, that's their problem.
- irishcoffee 9mo agoThey don't even have an office in the Netherlands. I'm not entirely sure they even have employees in the Netherlands. If they've made a net profit over 1.1m in the Netherlands, and I'll bet you $1.1 they have, they did not operate at a loss. This fine is a joke.
- d3rockk 9mo agoThe Netherlands typically accounts for roughly 1.5% to 2% of the global video game market. After applying this share to Epic’s global estimated revenue of $5.7 billion, we can estimate roughly $100 million to $115 million for 2024. 1) Total Estimated Epic Revenue: $5.7 billion https://sacra.com/c/epic-games/ https://sacra.com/c/epic-games/ 2) Global Gaming Market: $187.7 billion https://best-of-gaming.be/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2024_Newzoo_Global_Games_Market_Report.pdf https://best-of-gaming.be/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2024_Ne... 3) The Netherlands Gaming Market Size: $2.5 billion https://www.imarcgroup.com/netherlands-gaming-market https://www.imarcgroup.com/netherlands-gaming-market
