I am imagining that Microsoft will rip out all the crap everyone hates and sell a streamlined Xbone in Asia, then the rest of the world will complain that Asia got a better console.
Much like the original Xbox controller.
Designed to fit into fat American hands, rest of the world found it uncomfortable to use so they were forced to design and released a smaller one. Guess which one made the transition to the 360 and Xbone?
To be honest, the original Xbox controller didn't even fit that well in North American hands. I'm 6'2" and my hands are certainly proportional to my body but damn if I didn't hate that giant Xbox controller. I knew one friend that did like it, but he has the hands of an orangutan.
Reading what I wrote, I perhaps came across a little harsh there.
But I do remember it being the Japanese controller that we all wanted to get hold of for testing purposes on the xbox dev platforms. I know no-one who enjoyed using that beast either through work or amongst friends.
