>It seems like major changes are afoot for Xbox in the Nordic market. According to sources to Gamereactor, the console will stop being sold from July, and for those stores that want to continue selling it, only imports from Europe will remain.

>If this turns out to be true, it probably means that there are simply so few Xboxes being sold in the Nordic market that it is simply not considered worthwhile to continue. We note that before the end of the month, the Xbox Series X is very empty at, among others, the giant retailer Elgiganten, where only eight stores in Sweden have it in stock, and in Denmark only two. The other day we also reported on major layoffs at the Xbox division, which could coincide with the rumor that Xbox is leaving the Nordics.

Xbox is pulling out of Europe every one knows this, they left the Middle East last year, they'd leave Asia but enough American servicemen buy them while deployed.

Not too surprising, if anyone remembers the Xbox One launched over a year late from the international launch. Xbox has mostly neglected the nordics for a long time.
Looking at store shelves it's also obvious this was going to happen. Every major retailer sells PlayStations. If there's a big general sale going on, there's always PS5 consoles included in that as well. Game shelves are mostly PlayStation with some Nintendo thrown in as well.
I can't even remember the last time I saw an Xbox game for sale outside of dedicated game stores, let alone an Xbox console.
I wonder if this means NHL is about to become a PS5 exclusive? Or does it sell well enough in Canada to justify continued Xbox support?

It is a huge success. Such a huge success it made MS question why the fuck they are wasting time and money making hardware when people will hand them nearly $20 a month for doing almost nothing.

This is always a weird strat because Xbox as a brand is ultimately meaningless. 360 did just fine. If the new console somehow turns out good and sells well, it'll be missing out on a market.

It will never sell as much as ps or Nintendo unless it is also a pc and even then, it's doubtful. The brand is forever 3rd place, and needs to keep existing because we have seen what Nintendo and Sony do when they think they have no competition.

Microsoft is making their current moves because it was a huge failure. Phil will retire, Sarah will be fired, they're going full third party.

Makes sense. Eurocucks are too feminine to appreciate the true man's gaming platform of choice.
This is what I would've believed during the Xbox 360 Xbox era.
But no, it's been over for a long time now...for we were betrayed from within....
