| binary solo said: I expect China will approve 5 million PS4 sales when they get the release confirmed. But by that time Xb one might be on it's next 5 million batch. |
I see this figure being pedaled alot, they've allowed a maximum allocation of 5 million to date, not that a shipment of 5 million consoles has been finalized or will be happening in one go, there's also no solid gurantee that they will permit an additional allocation of either console beyond the initial figure.
Additionally, this is a country where the region with the highest average MONTHLY wage before tax is $755, elsewhere the national average hovers around 3350 yuan, ($540), anyone expecting the day one shipment to be the same as the current lifetime global sales, of 5 million, or that these 5 million allocated sales units will shift in a short amount of time, are in for quite the shock.
And that isn't exclusive to xbox, either, PS4 is going to do equally as shitty out there.
