I also think it's fairly obvious a price cut on Kinect and a big advertising boost will push Kinect higher than it did last year, why are people so against the idea Kinect can sell akin to a console? People see its sales today and think, it's fading fast, it's history. Have they learnt NOTHING from being on this site???
It might not be obvious to you but then you don't have all the facts and you're not in the know, MS rarely come out with comments like this and I don't think they would stand on that stage and repeat it to journalists unless they were very confident.
Like i said, Kinect bundle at $199 + advertisments, sales in the U.S will explode, that'll be enough for WW.
I've brought this out several times in the past but it always seems to be ignored. You think saturion will have no effect on a potential impact a price cut might have? Why do think DS's price cut last year fell almost totally flat? And now even Wii's price cut only seems to be giving a modest short term boost. Saturation is a very real issue that 360 is facing in America. It's not really an issue in Europe outside of the UK due to the higher population and 360's lower install base but continental Europe has never been very pro-360 to begin with. Not to mention the fact that $200 is pretty much determined to be the mass market price point. Any price cuts after that aren't going to be as meaningful.
Agreed. 200 bucks is so cheap people who want one have no reason not to get one.
