Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup is a video game produced by EA Games that features the fictional sport of Quidditch from the Harry Potter universe. The user plays for the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup (competing between Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw) and then takes on the Quidditch World Cup (competing between the United States, England, France, Germany, Scandinavia, Japan, Spain, Australia and Bulgaria.) Its teams have drawn criticism mainly for the lack of the Irish team, which won against Bulgaria in the World Cup in the fourth book.
Because the books have not named all of the members of the Hogwarts house teams, the video game has filled in the gaps as follows, around Harry's 3rd year. Though these names are not considered canon, it is possible that J.K.Rowling provided them, as she has been known to participate in multimedia projects, such as the Harry Potter Trading Card Game.
Here's a list of the stadiums and other stuff you can unlock while playing the game:
