"Can Microsoft survive on 2 markets"

As we all know and expect the x-box hasn't sold well in japan. The big question is Can microsoft survive on two markets the european and the us market alone?


I am getting an x-box on saturday so I hope it can!

MS dont need to make an immediate profit

Good I prefer more hollywood type games anways :)

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!

as halloh... said its microsoft they also have there huge backup of the pc market to cusion the blow if they fail.

It's Microsoft for God's sake!!!!!!

They could cope even if it didnt sell well in any markets.

They dont even expect to make a profit till 2005/

yea it can phew

It probably can cope because it's Microsoft.

Not much else needs to be said!
