Not a snowball's chance in hell it will be anything more than a failure in tier 2 markets. Why do you think they're tier 2 to begin with? They're already getting clobbered in tier 1 markets outside of US/UK. Besides, the tiny demand from these markets is already well filled by exporters. It's not exotic like here in the states to have an 'import' console, it's easy. Major retailers have them available, and the majority of EU gamers speak two or more languages fluently anyway. This is particularly true in Scandinavian countries, but in the continent also. So the sales to these markets is ALREADY in the numbers, all that will change is taking sales from Germany/etc, and moving that trickle to the tier 2 country instead.
