Re: My hypothesis on why Xbox 360 consoles are in such limited supply

If you want to be literal, then NO console has ever been launched
globally. Goodness, I'm sure there are some islands up in the Antarctic that would CRAVE for a
Gameboy right now.

Then don't call it a global launch. Simple.

But Japan, Europe and USA is as close to global than you'll ever get for
a launch.

The rest of Asia? Australia? Hardly islands up in the Antarctic.

So stop picking nits.


Yeah, 'cause that's what I'm doing. I'm sure you'd be singing a different tune if you lived in, say, Korea. I'm simply saying that calling a spade an anvil is inaccurate.
