And he shouldn't. Japan is too important. If Microsoft no longer had a presence in Japan then they would get even less Japanese games, giving Sony (and maybe Nintendo) even more titles that won't appear on Xbox. It's worth the small amount of money they spend there.

One of the few comments here that is actually worth reading.

The XBO sold 300k in Sweden in 2015 http://www.dataspelsbranschen.se/media/154040/nordic-game-sales-2015.pdf

Also sold 122k in 2014 http://www.dataspelsbranschen.se/media/151761/nordic_game_sales_2014.pdf

Thanks for this info, Jason.

well the small amount sold in lesser coutries does add up, and you need less money to operate there.

however.

unlike sony microsoft already needs stuff in lesser countries cause windows. so it REALLY doesn't cost that much for xbox to be supported opposed to, say, nintendo (which is the reason they almost withdrew from korea- they wentt from 200 staff to like a dozen).
