There are one other reason for its success in Brazil: taking full advantage of local culture when porting some games.
For instance, Turma da Monica em O Resgate [1], built up over Wonder Boy III [2] and not only localized but also retooled to use the belove Monica's Gang characters.
TecToy [3] really knew their local market modifying "some games to replace characters with local licenses; that way, Teddy Boy became Geraldinho of Glauco, certain Wonder Boy titles became Monica's Gang games and Ghost House also starred El Chapulín Colorado", all of them very known and well beloved characters of Brazilian youth at the time.
