Isn't Mexico also banned from producing and selling games consoles?

Foreign console video games will be required to use simplified Chinese characters and cannot only use traditional Chinese characters, such as those used in video games released in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The new censorship regulations appear to prevent such popular foreign video games as Grand Theft Auto 5 and Battlefield 4 from entering the Chinese game market legally, depending on how strictly the rules are enforced.
