If we see a similar drop in Tier 2 countries to that in Japan, then yeah, the baseline will not get that much of a boost at all.

Xbox has always done terrible in Japan, so a drop that huge (84.8%) is not likely in these new countries. If they did however, that is an extra 4.5k per week in Europe.

I think a increase of 11k to the baseline is more likely. (A drop of 63%)

That's waayy too high. The X1 doesn't have many selling points in those countries to justify a purchase, not to mention, it didn't have a good launch in those Tier 2 countries either. Baseline will only be boosted by about 5k.
