...AMAZON... isn't this the website that can't be used to measure HW/SW sales?

First thing I'm gonna do when I get my Kinect is create a female avatar.  Then, I'm going to make her pleasure herself and dance for my amusement.......of course, I would have to act out everything that she'd be doing.

*thinks about how creepy that is, for a minute*

I'm okay with that.

Good for them.  I still think its too high and will be surprised if its the actual retail price.  And if it is, no Dance Central for me.  : (

wow, theres really some people willing to track all kind bs

what kinda hype can someone get from kinect or even move

cuz maybe its just me but I didnt see anything lookin worth to mention

 

 

PS:OK exept for the people who really love motion,I guess the ps3 Sorcery title can be good to them

Retailers started taking preorders at the pricepoint for Kinect of $149.99.

Even without an official statement from M$ on the price. So is Kinect overpriced at $149.99?

Consumers dont think so. It not only has already overtaken the new slim 360 model for sales. All preorders ask for a deposit to.

Even though Move made a larger buzz with the 'Gaming Media' than Kinect. Move is also available for preorder and hasnt even broke the top 10. 

"Microsoft still hasn't officially announced a price for Xbox 360's Kinect (release date: November 4) but retailers aren't wasting any time taking pre-orders at the same price point.

 

I was surprised this morning to see Kinect had not only gone up for pre-order at online retailer Amazon.com, but that it had jumped right past the hot selling Xbox 360 slim console into thenumber one hourly bestsellers slot. Sony's Playstation Move is also up for pre-order but has not yet cracked the top 10 despite costing less and being available nearly two months sooner."

Yeah, it is. PS EYE has been at $39.99 since launch, possibly same for Eyetoy.



Sorry for bad English.

Amazon ≠ Real World.  Please do not use one internet site as proff of broader sales trends.



Remember, magic is just stuff science has not made boring yet.

selnor posting anything positive about the 360 is not permited on this site.

Are hardware pre-orders tracked in the VGCHartz pre-order section?  I don't remember...

Would be interesting, it it was.
