If we look it from another perspective, if u r working for microsoft, will u launch it over here in malaysia ? guess not as u cant gain much profit from the number of xbox gamers here. How many xbox gamers tat support original hardware/software in our country ? Bet it less than 1000 people yet some of you still asking when MS will launch it over here in Malaysia its a fundamental problem. For example, most likely xbox gamer in some town of western country already surpass the total number of xbox gamers that we had in malaysia . Just my 2 cents.
