Hooking up with Tencent seems like it was a bit of a coup for MS in the China market.


Possibly, but I still dont see either the One or PS4 doing much over there.

I do believe PC gaming is huge there, which may limit the appeal of consoles, similar to the Korean gaming situation perhaps.

But in a country the size of China, with a pretty rapidly expanding middle class, I can't imagine the console market being smaller then Japan's. 20 million people (~1.5% of the population) buying consoles almost seems like a sure bet. And a 20 million console market is nothing to sneeze at. But by the same token a 20 million console market isn't likely to be a game changer in the global scheme of things.
