It seems a market where the xbox one is doing well. They really need to focus on Europe especially the mainland where its failing miserably. Yes maybe xbox one sales will dip below ps4 now that the price has gone back up but in Europe xbox one sales are insignificant outside the UK to the point that stocking the console may not be realistic for many stores. |
I disagree on Europe. X360 was always cheaper than PS3 and still sold worse. I think MS should focus their efforts on US and UK markets and try to gain back the market share lost to Sony, and in all other markets just remain visible at full price, even if it means bad sales. Because even with price cuts they don't stand much chance of gaining lots of ground, and should just take all the money they can get. It's not like they sell a lot there anyway, US and UK constitute 75% of their sales, and even September's expansion into other markets will not skew those percentages much.
