So the countries outside the 13 launch for Xbone are now irrelevant


In that list pretty much.... for instance releasing in Brazil (where you are from I believe) was/is way more relevant than Russia Imo... scandinavia/switzerland is totally irrelevant (sorry guys but that's just a realty, they might even lose money shipping and having customer support in some of those countries) the only 2 that might be are belgium and Netherlands but being not that big either and Sony camps already it shouldn't be a priority...

Being present in historically big gaming country is more important... they make money on attach rate and monetization of services and apps after.... so yeah big gaming countries that spend a lot or more money on game is the sweet spot....

 

I think so far both strategy (Sony/MS) makes perfect sense in regard to their historic brand recognition globally... especially if you believe in yield issues and think Sony produced 1 million more... this makes even more sense then...
