No we won't..you will pretend you never said china woul be a relevant market, it is even more unique then japan, xbox certainly doesn;t have a single game that will appeal to that market. Ps4 will easily outsell it ther elike everywhere but neither will do much, can get them on the black market half the price.



Looks like they'll need to have the Chinese goverment clear the sale of another 5 million units, because they'll exhaust the first one before the end of the year.



Isn't it only allowed to sell 500k consoles ATM?

this is not even gaming related

china is becoming the most or second most important market for many industies

 

and no1 care if u can get a console on the blackmarket already

that doesnt matter

all the time i read this "argument" i have to puke

u guys have zero clue about economics

 

 

 

comparte the iphone black market sales 2 years ago to now 

do it with anything else. its always the same picture.

black and greymaket is always small and niche.

 

 

 

if u can get the same sales through black-/gremaket

why do companys spend money on the real market, partner with local distibutors. advertise. give support. etc..

why not just flood the fucking grey market and get 100% of all sale u could get a max nevertheless?

 

because thats not how it works.

i only hear this bullshit talk in gaming forums. why dont u and all the other guys work in a billion dollar company and just tell them how theire business work?



It can but lets see what week 2 drop off is... I'm Saying 700,000 by christmas

Xbox is not an iphone a device that sells in the hundreds of millions in 1 years....please...china is not gonna save or help xbox 1, it is NOT going to be a big market for consoles.

 

You have zero clue about china most of the population are below the poverity line, and console games, especially xbox games won;t appeal to anyone there outside a niche group.  PS4 wont even do well there.

 

chian is an important for many indistries, largely goods related, and...for a luxury like game consoles ROFL, you are clueless. China is NOT a big market for a game console.



when has the XB1 ever exceeded expectations sales wise? Why would it start now?
