The Impact will be very meaningfull.... Ms revenue will drop without sales increase.

They should give up Japan, seriously. People who play on Xbox mostly don't care about japanese games, japanese don't care about Xbox.


I'd have to think they are losing money every quarter there.  Not sure how much so they may be okay with it.



Poor Xbox. Going from a very good gen during the 360 days to the current laughing stock of the industry the next. :(

Hopefully things will pick up for them.



Sorry microsoft but that´s not going to help

Who can blame them? They HAVE to stay competitive ...

Maybe they will hit 500 units sold that first week...


Maybe it could have converted those 7 people who bought an Xbox360 last week on the charts here to move to an Xbox1!

Still tho, if it did sell 500 units when this comes in that would be a 150% increase in sales sadly.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

I'd rather have MS finally notice this little continent called Europe in which they could actually stand a chance. I know it's considered Sonyland, but it's nowhere near as bad as Japan and X360 was very successful. They totally gave up with Xbone over here and only focus on NA - and Japan, it seems.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

"timed" again?
It won't work in Japan, though.

Even less that the PS4 price cut was announced earlier, is official and not timed and it's way, way more relevant there.
Not to say in the very same day as the PS4.

It's timed too? What the flying fulton extraction failure are MS thinking of?

I think it is possible Xbox sales could double or even triple because of this.
