Due to the extremely high consumer demand for the Xbox, its supply is limited in Poland (and other Eastern European countries)

Xbox Series X zostanie wycofany z Polski? Microsoft wydaÅ oficjalne oÅwiadczenie (Aktualizacja) | GRYOnline.pl
Microsoft ustosunkowaÅ siÄ do plotek dotyczÄcych wycofania Xboksa Series X z Polski. PoznaliÅmy oficjalne oÅwiadczenie Biura Prasowego Xbox.
www.gry-online.pl
"Ze względu na wysoki popyt konsumencki na konsole Xbox Series X jej podaż jest ograniczona w okresie świątecznym na terenie Polski. Jednocześnie pragniemy poinformować, iż Xbox Series S jest wciąż dostępny do nabycia w całym kraju. Zachęcamy graczy do odwiedzenia strony xbox.com/regions, by poznać więcej informacji nt. możliwości gry na Xbox."
Translation:
"Due to high consumer demand for Xbox Series X consoles, its supply is limited during the holiday season in Poland.
At the same time, we would like to inform you that Xbox Series S is still available for purchase throughout the country. We encourage players to visit xbox.com/regions for more information on Xbox gaming options."
It seems that Microsoft is limiting the availability of consoles on the Polish market. A big win indeed.

Who knows? It's not my study:
Study Shows PlayStation Gamers Make the Most Money Out of All Console Players as Adults
I think this topic has potential to be fun. https://www.dualshockers.com/playstation-gamers-make-the-most-money-as-adults/www.neogaf.com
In a world where you can divide part of the planet in sections. Germany is in the center of Europe.
If you draw the line here:
Sweden and Finland are Eastern Europe as well (including Greece).
Everyone knows that Poland is a fictitious country because they were defeated by beavers, so this news is unlikely to be true.

Bojji is this all a long winded way for you tell us you identify as central?
In politics? For sure.
Most Polish people don't like "Eastern Europe" being used when placing Poland on map because it's incorrect:
Even using historical context Poland was never part of Eastern side:
I doubt people will miss them.

Unfortunately here in the UK, most, if not all, will still refer to Poland as Eastern European. Part of that will be historical from Berlin wall days. But I'm happy to go with central. Its all the same to me.
Back OT. I wonder if we'll actually see complete hardware withdrawal from European regions before the end of this gen. Maybe we simply see MS Store only options as they run down and exit fully from the high street.

I think most Western Europeans (and probably Western countries) consider everything east of the Iron Curtain as Eastern Europe.In politics? For sure.

the binary division with west and east is soviet era simplification of two blocks. Otherwise Germany is clearly central europa.

That's right but it doesn't exist for 35 years.
If you wanted to tell someone where Kansas is placed in US map, would you tell them that it's in east, west, north or south?
No, you would say that's in the center.

Well Sara Bond did say that Microsoft/Xbox were going to release the most "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Hardware Ever". So, I'm sure Phil wants to make sure there is enough shelf space for it. It's probably 3 times as big as a Series X if it contains all of that power.
What a guy!!! So considerate.

Why would anyone care where Kansas is?

It's not due to high demand.
