Damn, that's a nice setup. My Walmart actually has something kinda similar, but it's way smaller.

We will probably get an idea through the quarterly shipments.

You guys know those pics are from a 3 days old NeoGaf thread that the creator was banned due because people couldn´t buy any game displayed, until today.

Did you not see the pictures where hundreds of people are lined up to buy an XBO? 


No, shame on me. 

Only the first two that are a lot hell similar to those at last week Neogaf thread.

As I already said, those pics are from before the launch, to show the kind of store space it is getting.

doesn't look bad.

shame it is going to take 3 (to 20) quarterly shipment reports before vgcz numbers can be trusted to even be in the same order of magnitude of actual sales in china.


if there isn't a reasonbale boost on VGC numbers this week and next week for Xbox One then it just confirms what we already knew.

even if there is a boost it's just a cake (aka lie) to make the numbers taste sweeter.    at this point we don't need confirmation to know whatever is posted is guess.  it will get adjusted eventually to be "reasonable" but we'll need several shipment numbers to get it right.   hell,. even with shipment numbers that hasn't prevented adjustments being in excess of a million units at a time..

either MS announces their numbers or we'll never know.

No. Again, it was only a extrapolation from one guy on one forum, and i don't even know how this rumor is still here.

Exactly.  The expansion of the market means that shipments is now the only relaible source we have.  Problem is neither Ms or Sony are very forthcoming with those either these days.

sony, at least, has given a few of their big milestone like 10M.  i do expect those to be fewer and further between thought. 

but yeah,. the stupid  "blah blah family" shipment figures is bullshit.

Does anyone know what the other 70 games are that ms is working to get approved for sale in china?

Looks like noone knows. I guess there are a lot of local titles in this list, and I hope that other xbox one AAA blockbusters like Destiny, Titanfall, Call of Duty Ghosts, which are already avaliabe worldvide, will soon be approve by chinese government and made avaliable for chinese gamers.
