Those Xbox One numbers in the UK are over 50% of the total in Europe.

~11,500 in the UK vs ~9,000 in the rest of Europe. Thats quite something. Someone correct me if Im wrong here, but I dont remember the 360 ever having/ maintaining a ratio like that with UK to Mainland Europe. Granted, the Xbox One is still to launch in a lot of EU countries, but I just find that UK bias on the numbers to be a tad surprising.

No, I don't think the 360 ever maintained a ratio like that, but all things considered I don't really find this ratio for the X1 surprising. Aside from not being available in all European countries there's also missing the advantage of being available earlier and cheaper than the competition that the 360 had and MS trying way harder to compete in the UK than they are in the rest of Europe.
