Microsoft: No Xbox One in Japan this Year, Tier 2 Country

Everyone outside of America is tier 2, regardless of their labelling. Every media advantage the Xbox is said to have seems exclusive to the US (for obvious reasons)

Why anyone outside of the US would pick one up confounds me.

They need more time for Kinnect tentacle sex to be developed.Jack-Burton

I'm intrigued.

How would this work exactly ? Would you play as the tentacles or the victim ?
Maybe you can play co-op with a buddy.

Day one, yo.

it seems the Japanese are the only ones with real taste they wont buy microsofts garbage.

not a good way to say it but it makes sense. why waste resources in a region where it won't sell?

Micro$haft might do well by not releasing in any countries except AU, EU and US.

Japanese play shitty games, good for MS not catering to those overacted sentimental movie games they got going on over there.

Why would you say such a stupid thing, without japanese games the industry would suffer, plus it's much better then that western crap :P

Can't wait to see what Microsoft Studios Osaka is working on.

Well guess what MS? Your Xbox One is a tier 2 console.

Japan is a Tier 2 country and not a Tier 1 country

This is the kind of genius marketing that's going to win over Japan.

I can't blame them. Japan don't care for the Xbox brand.

Can't blame them but saying "Tier 2 country" sounds like they're salty from the last two gens

I man, it makes sense considering how Xbox has sold in Japan in the past, so I can't say I blame them too much. charizard1605

Microsoft PR team are a gift that just keep giving

If i tried selling my product in a place that'll barely sniff it for ten years I wouldn't go out of my way to cater to them and I'd most certainly categorize them from a business sense as a tier two country.... Good move Microsoft. They've rolles the red carpet out to Japan twice and got spat on each time. Anyone holding ms reluctance against them is pretty much an ass.... TheEroica

Being spiteful towards people who aren't buying your product isn't a good business tactic :|

Another boom

Yeah, like...

[spoiler] Boom-BOOM! [/spoiler]

Realistically....MS only seems to care about the US at the moment so no surprise hereZuzuvela
