I agree and it still has like 30? more countries to launch.


Not this again, these tiny territories make up 5-10 % of xbox sales at best they would only add a few thousand a week. Xbox is already in it's biggest territores and PS4 is outselling it by a lot. Japan alone is bigger then these 30 + territories combined.


You are missing the point weazel... those "tiny territories" will still add up to sales in the charts... You cannot just ignore the fact that 50>13.. all of you who does are crazy...

Did I say they wont add some sales?  I even said what around they will add weekly.................The fact that people are using them as a crutch like they will make a big difference is the issue, they won't.


Around 40 countries each selling around maybe 1,000 each a week equal 40k extra a week. Let's do the math together 40 times a thousand equals 40,000. I'll say it again, 40 times a thousand equals 40,000. add fourty thousand to xbox one numbers and they are similar to ps4. you cant deny it

Great post!! And its true.

It isn't true, look at what Sony sells there. subtract quite a bit as xbox does not seell near as well there, his numbers are grossly inflated, these territories dont come close to 40 k a week, they combined are way less the japan.,...... Look at xbox numbers there.

It is true. 360 beat ps3 in countries like sweden, norway etc. If you're trying to tell us the Xbox One can only sell 200 units on average per country you're insane.

well at least here in Brasil (market bigger than Sweden, Norway etc) PS4 and even Wii U are now outselling Xbox One pretty easy, so at least one country we can say it sells like 200 units per week

I don't think a small figure such as a thousand units per week on average for each of these small regions is too unrealistic. Perhaps even just the additional 20-40 thousand (instaed of 40k) would make a significant impact each week. Sony fans are discounting these regions of unreleased Xone consoles way to easily IMO.

This is about the fifth or sixth thread you invade with this nonsense. Again especially for you:

The XBox One has been selling in most, if not all, of those European countries (due in September) FOR MONTHS now (even in countries like Iceland that aren't even on MS's list..). The Metro group (MediaMarkt, Saturn, etc.) has over 1000 shops all over mainland Europe and they have been selling XBox Ones in probably most if not all of them (we have pictures of XBoxe Ones.  Then there are tons of importers that import XBoxe Ones from the States - since the $450 price drop they are even considerably cheaper than the official msrps.

Well he is the thread starter, so I guess he can't necessarily invade something he started hehehehe

Not a shred of truth to anything you said here... Sony dominates these countries. Most of these countries do not buy a lot of consoles and have a population lower then a small US state...Many will only move a few hundred a week.


Again, Sony sells a lot more in these countries, and they dont do close to 40k a week....x1 wil do even less there. The sales numbers are on this very site, xbox is not popular over there at all and these areas do not move  alot of hardware.

 

It will be even worse this gen then last for MS.

Is this an april fools joke? PS4 is near doubling Xb1 sales worldwide. I think Xb1 will do fine, but unstoppable beast is a bit much.

Microsoft itself is totally discounting these regions by not selling its xbox one there. They manufacture enough xbox, and they can quickly localize the 100 vocal orders and system if they have the will. They judged that it was not worth to invest at this point. They discounted these small regions.

Fair enough call in that Microsoft are wrongfully ignoring potential markets, however these are markets that would otherwsie be providing sales of potentially thousands of units per week..again prob in the range 20-40k??
