As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much
Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region
Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.
I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.

The Switch is on fire. Good job Nintendo, please keep up the momentum by releasing some great games.
wow so must be at or above 3 mil now were half way through April. Mario Kart, Arms and Splatoon will do wonders for sales in the coming months with the right advertising! The Switch is so much better then 3DS and Wiiu, love it.
I kinda want it,.. for Zelda,.. If it had DKS1/2 port,.. I would be all over this. Very glad it is doing well.
The PlayStation 4 did 2.1 million in two weeks so not bad for Nintendo.
That's nice for NS.
In comparison 3DS sold 3.61 million in its first month during March without a huge system seller
