If you’d bothered to pay attention, you’d see that that’s all they’ve done so far. In terms of both hardware and software, Xbox is pretty heavily centered on the US.

But you know: PlayStation has won the US in every generation except the last one. And while it might be close, relatively speaking, Xbox has nothing to turn the tides and overcome the few million that separate the consoles in the US. They don’t have the games, and the new hardware is too niche.

Sorry to tell you, but your idea of them winning back America is a pipe dream.

Microsoft should focus on the number #1 console gaming market in the world and that is the U.S.A win back the U.S.A and everything else is just icing on the cake
The Xbox One and PS4 lifetime sales numbers are actually very close in the U.S.A so Xbox One actually has a chance to overtake PS4 in the U.S.A market

nice piece but this may be taken into serious consideration the same way they handle exclusives.

Where is this resolve? There’s lip service, but a lack of action.

Where are the studios? The Japan-centered games and apps?
