The first week sales for Xbox One are in and it’s a shocker. As in, it’s really poor. The Xbox One has sold 23k units in 4 days which is way lower than what the PS4 did.
There's simply not a market for the console in Japan.
Only global gaming brands deserve Japan launches. Stay domestic if you depend on one or two countries on a struggling platform, Microsoft. Let Sony and Nintendo duke this generation out.
but even the Ps4 is having troubles in japan their gaming industry is mobile phones and handhelds. Consoles dont fit into the japanese lifestyle they want something they can play on the train or bus.
