Videogame contraband not nearly as widespread as movies, music, cocaine

Courtesy of TheLastBoss, come stats on the Global trade of illicit products, where I'm happy to say videogames rank a lowly 25 on the list, behind things like cocaine, pirated movies, and opium. There are probably a ton of reasons why this is the case, but I think one could argue that we as gamers (as a whole) tend to have more respect for the people that make the games, and are therefore more likely not going to rip them off.

Of course it could be commercials like this to thank for the low piracy rate. But somehow I doubt it.
