Microsoft puts Xbox One in a shark tank in New Zealand
Now, we aren’t sure how happy we would be if our new console was sitting in massive tank filled with sharks and, more importantly, thousands of gallons of electronic-killing water, but we suspect this console will likely be given away to the first person in line. Besides, who wants a console that has already been opened (if you are paying for it, that is), as part of the fun is ripping open the box to behold the treasures inside.
The console can be viewed if you go to Kelly Tarlton's SEA LIFE Aquarium in Auckland where the console will reside until Nov. 22, when the Xbox One goes on sale.
While it is a cheesy marketing stunt, the promotion has gained attention around the world which, in our book, makes it a huge success.

mtnCyimking lol so are they not getting the sales they want or ?... Don't know how putting a xbox one in a shark tank will boost sales within a week.
I know, they could just give that box away to a kid in need or some charity fund raiser $1 ticket sale something lmfao.
It's just fueling it. They already have way more than what they want.

DNaDee Good to see Microsoft using their resources wisely. Maybe if they spent all of this money on the console, they wouldn't have such an underpowered box.
Giving the fuel for a petty console war. Very "mature."
