Forums - Microsoft - Time : Xbox One to Launch in 29 New Markets: Why It Matters

WagnerPaiva on 04 September 2014

I have been saying this for ages, if it sells 10k in each country it means 290k. I have been saying, but did anyone listen to me? Noooooooooooooooooo... =/



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

It won't matter much, but if the Xbox One is successful...we might see it become a ww brand like PlayStation. Or is that wishful thinking?

There isn't a lot of room at the top.


Then there it is. THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!!!!

Yep of course they will matter but by now all those people who wanted an Xbox already purchased a ps4 by now. Sony has had that advantage and will continue. Xbox will be out on 41 markets but ps4 is out on 72......still out on more. Before someone says "but but you can buy an Xbox all over EU already" you might be able too but you gotta pay to import it and you cannot access Xbox live outside of those 13 markets. Why would someone buy a console that can't access online? A console that is pretty much made to be online just like the ps4. It doesn't make any sense if you buy one and can't be online....the console needs a day one update in order to work.

Just to correct you, so you don't have incorrect data. There are no import duties across EU, so goods (and XOne) can move from Ireland and Portugal to Greece and Bulgaria at no extra cost (except a few Euro for postage).

Also, you can access live from anywhere without restrictions, whether Tier 2, Tier 3 or no Tier at all.

On 360 you can but not on Xbox one unless it was later added. I remember microsoft said last year Xbox live would only be available in 13 markets on Xbox one at launch.

The Wii U should also launch in many new countries. But we know Nintendo....

They changed that when they did their 24-hour check-in 180. It's the same as X360 since launch.

EAT BUTTER

OT: Yeah, hopefully those 29 extra territories will give the One a decent sized boost.
