Microsoft France has confirmed that no new Xbox will be released in 2012.
French Marketing Director Cedric Delmas says that despite rumors, the next gen Xbox ( Xbox 720 If You Want ) will not release in 2012.
"We're in an industry that talks a lot, that likes telling stories," Delmas told French site Lepoint.fr. "I am not convinced that things will happen this year. The Xbox 360's cycle is not over at all. The proof is that we haven't price cut this year. Afterward, what will happedn at E3, it's still too early to say. What's certain is that there will be nothing new in 2012."
Delmas also said that Microsoft is not competing with Nintendo and it's upcoming Wii-U : "If we wanted to counter Nintendo, We would have to be in a position to release something immediately, and that is not at all the case," Delmas Said. "We're not here to counter Nintendo and they're not here to fight the other manufacturers. Nintendo has put itself in a different cycle. It's going forward to its own rhythm, with success as we have seen with the Wii, and now it's their turn to present their innovation"
