Well, for the last 2 decades Nintendo have happily survived by only taking the smallest 2 game markets seriously- happily ignoring Europe (which makes more profit than either of the other 2 markets now).

So, yes, MS will do pretty well. The games are almost soley aimed at the West anyway!

It probably can cope because it's Microsoft.

Not much else needs to be said!
