The total circulation of the system in the region for all time has only reached 113.5 thousand units compared to 13.6 million Nintendo Switch and 9.1 million PlayStation 4. In February, the head of Microsoft Phil Spencer called the current position of the platform in Japan “unacceptable,” declaring its determination to popularize the brand among Japanese gamers.
