Who are we kidding here sweden, Denmark, Norway, Switzerland, Belgium are around 40 million inhabitants combine.... those country while relevant are anything but major countries when it comes to market shares or even brand value globally.... they'd be better off releasing in India and not at all in those countries even with the poverty level you have over there....

And please with the Xbox defeat that's just uber lolable... they are doing just fine and won't have anything remotely comparable with the struggle of the ps3 last gen.... if Xbox one is a defeat ps3 even with current numbers was a catastrophe in comparison....

Bottom line I have mine and I am pleased with it which really is all that matters to me as a customer


Russia, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Sweden, Finland, Norway and Denmark are more than 160 million inhabitants combined or that is saying that the UK + France + Spain market is not important.

Lol yeah you have Russia... with what 118 million.... with a 90% rate of piracy, the best selling console will be the easiest to hack over there... i'd take UK France Germany over those country any day in terms of potential revenue....

So you're statement is wrong even with more inhabitants.... the countries they released in so far are way more important than Russia and other smaller countries in that list with maybe a couple exception.... this is not to say those country are shit, just that from pure business prospective they are not as important and by far for some (Scandinavia)...

On an other note, not sure where the deal in china is going... but even that to me seems way more relevant and profitable for MS than those 160 million split up over many countries with a smaller ratio of console gamers for a good half...

But even still you can't just act like this is insignificant though. This is not a smart move at all if this "rumor" is ture that would hurt them more than it would help them. It would really hurt their marker share. While they are focusing on UK, USA etc at best right now they would only be even(statistical tie) with PS4 in those markets. But getting beat out EVERYWHERE else in the world and waiting ALMSOT A YEAR to release in those other places just seems silly.

I may be wrong of course but it just doesn't seem all that wise business in my opinon. I would even see them cutting the price super early like the PS3 had to so early in its life. But time will tell how it plays out! I hope they know what they are doing because I want to have some good games on both my PS4 and XB1 when I eventually get them. I don't want to be disappointed like I ended up being with my 360 due to lack of support game wise.
