Xbox One has already sold more in China than in Japan

Welcome to the wonderful world of video game consoles, China.

The Xbox One has sold over 100,000 systems in its first week on sale in China, according to Chinese news site 17173. It’s hard to compare that number with the PlayStation 4’s performance, or even past sales of older boxes, since the Xbox One is the first video game console to launch in China since a 2000 ban on them ended last year.
