What is forgotten is Hong kong has been a major gateway for Western products , legit and counterfeit into mainland china for most of it's history ,so many would have them already , still this gives them access and they get at least a small slice of the console market and hopefully grow it in future using the perceived advantages of buying legit to take a cut from the grey market , also and this is a long way off but the more western products sold straight up might help with future negotiations with the Government , about patents etc especially if it can in the long term create benefits in the form of tax revenue ,increased retail employment and the like to show that opening up can be more beneficial to the Government , than allowing the black/grey markets to dominate. |
Agreed that is may open gateways to more products legally being sold in China,
Also, PS3 is not a western product.

I was using western as a blanket term for imports that could be loosely termed as being made for or who's primary focus is the western market , even though PS3 is from japan and manufactured in China .
