It seems you don't even know what blue ocean means it's nothing to do with not competing and everything to do with who you target as a consumer, DS and Wii targeted a group who have always been around but not focused on casuals as well as establish the goal of bringing in new gamers rather than strictly focus on people who were already gamers this is why Gen 7 grew so much as blue ocean brought in many new gamers. Kinect targeted the same group simple as that.
Mobile is very relevant because that's where many new gamers have ended up this further highlights your lack of understanding the blue ocean because it all started with the DS which ignited the touch screen craze and lead to Apple implementing it on the iPhone, the blue ocean were brought in not strictly by motion controls but by intuitive control set ups like touch screens and motion control why? Because they didn't need to know button combinations and such to play it was all simplified they could just pick up a DS and touch away or a Wiimote and jump right in or in the kinect's case turn it on and load up the game, mobile market took off and grabbed this market as now they didn't need to buy a dedicated gaming platform they just needed their phone that they got for free on a contract deal.
Kinect was never a thing in US but sold 15m more than any other region combined? Ok mate you keep telling yourself that, Kinect sold sold more than 50% of what PS3 and 1m short of what the Megadrive/Genesis sold in NA so that says more than you trying to tell us otherwise.
