1.3 billion people there. If 10% of the population have acess to enough money to have a gaming habit, it will mean a 130 million people market. Even in Brazil we have a 37% of the population in the middle class with a buying power in averages of 30.000 dollars a year.

If 10% of their middle class get into gaming, this would mean a 13 million consoles market, probably one of the five largest markets.

Remember, China is lending money to USA in volumes no smaller than 200 billion, that means a lot of of money to spare there. 

When the pop decides to expend a little of this volume in their own lifes, it will be a gigantic game changer.

I can't see it selling 100,000 in China XD

Of course....................... no

YEah china will save x1 ....nope.

I saw your other post about china being a game changer how sony and N are perplexed by MS sales in china??? Really?? PS4 will launch in china soon and outsell x1, it is pretty sad how xbox fans are now climnging to china as some saviour......China wont be much of anything for ps4 or x1.

Sony is planning on releasing the PS4 in China this year. They're not dumb enough to just let the X1 have China to itself for several months. Also, the PS4 utterly crushed the X1 in a Chinese survey by almost 6 to 1. While some people are quick to dismiss surveys, keep in mind that this survey ran for weeks and its sample size was quite big. The X1 had a lot of time to catch up, but it never did which tells a lot.

As a result, I'm going to give the OP a big fat no.

Did I said that? No. I said they will become a major player, but I think Sony and Nintendo will wat a slice of that cake too, of course.
By the way, you made a account , So, let me give you a heads up: you have to know: I have all three consoles and buy tons of Nintendo and Sony games. I am just amazed of how promissing China´s market is appearing to be.

Is that 100k pre oder official in any level?

If it´s true, than it has a slight chance of hiting 1mi IF the chinease people like western hollydays shopping.

Of course not, and 100K preorders are just rumors a member of a Chinese forum. I don't know the market but I doubt they make +150K for the first week.

China wont be much of a player at all......consoles are not attractive there, especially not the x1 lineup, it is rife with poor people, piracy and a culture that likes f2p, and mmo's both of which ps4 will have more of. People banking on China are in for a rude awakening/

No it's not it is rumour so it's sad xbox fans, evben the official xbox nation thead is quoting it, sounds more like wishfull thinking.
