Xbox One was delayed in several territories just before the holidays, and Microsoft’s Phil Spencer has voiced his disappointment at the matter.
Speaking with OXM, Spencer said, “I wish we had the global coverage that we originally announced when we stood on stage at E3,” and added, “I stood on stage and talked about 21 markets … there were things around the voice models and other things we needed to make sure were right in order to really build a box that felt native to the markets we were shipping in.
“It never feels good to stand on stage and talk about 21 markets and ship in 13, but it’s a journey, and it’s not won or lost the day after launch. It will be something that plays out, so making sure the quality of each market when we ship is the important part.”
