Microsoft is taking new approach to Europe with 360, says Lewis
>> From gamesindustry.biz:
[QUOTE]
Xbox Europe boss Chris Lewis has said that mistakes were made when Microsoft launched its original console in some European countries - but pledged they won't be repeated with Xbox 360.

Speaking in an interview with GamesIndustry.biz Lewis said, "We've got pockets of fantastic achievement in EMEA and I think the UK is an example of that.. But then if you look around the rest of the region we have different challenges.

"Spain was genuinely a problem for us with the first version. We didn't start well, and often when we don't start well we do struggle to catch back," Lewis conceded.
"We went there probably with too hardcore a level of content. We didn't have the partnerships established both in retail or even at a publisher or marketing level in a way that was necessary for Spain, and we had to change things there at a pretty fast click.
