To make a quick buck thanks to how stupidly nostalgic the brazilians are about anything. And thanks to the damn retro fad.

They keep talking about how they loved playing Genesis when they were childs, event though they never stopped playing Genesis. Have you ever seen a brazilian gaming forum? Always the same games, everyday, over and over again. Always Altered Beast, Golden Axe, Sanic, Shinobi, always the same posts about how Alex Kidd used to be Sega's mascot until Sanic stole his spotlight and how Sega should come back to the hardware market, all with thousands "likes".

One may think that emulation was not popular in Hueland, and that's why BRs miss the old games so much. But emulation has been popular in Hueland since the nineties, while Genesis was still being manufactured and sold. We even had some BRs active in the emulator and hacking scene.
Everyone can buy a second hand Genesis for pennies, but brazilians asked for another Genesis re-release and they're thankful for it. They LIKE Tectoy and they pay big money for anything labeled as "retro".

Do China have gaming forums full of posts about NES clones and bad hacks? I mean, praising them and asking for more? Russians are nostalgic about fucking Dendy?

Brazil lives in a perpetual state of stockholm syndrome.
