I think it was a mistake because they are giving Sony a head start in multiple territories. I also think that it's a result of several of the XBO's services being region, U.S., specific. Getting equivalent features for the varying territories around the globe has to be trying. It's another reason I think MS gearing the XBO's around non-gaming features to the detriment of hardware was a mistake. In short, They've a made more expensive console, with inferior technical specifications, that's harder to role out in different territories due to it's non-gaming features.

I kind of agree... the first 10 million sales of a console come from gamers that didn't want these non-gaming features.

I think a better strategy was to deliver everything for gamer first and after add non-gaming features but MS was caught by surprise by the Soiny announce in February... that make everything hard to MS.
