Hello, I'm a new member of this great forum, after lurking for quite a while ;) So this is my first post!
Anyway, back on topic: as other people have said, Xbox One is in a "Wii U position" in mainland Europe.
It's better for Microsoft to keep the price high and hoping for profits. It's the same reason why I don't see a price cut for the Nintendo console anytime soon. They will probably wait for a PS4 global price cut and then they will follow suit.
