Premature ejaculation.



"Well certainly with the Xbox 360, we had some challenges at the launch. Once we identified that we took control of it. We wanted to do it right by our customers. Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360

People just look at Kinect games sales. Name one Move only game ( excluding SC) that sold 100k since launch... yeah there is non. Now look again at Kinect games sales ;)



As I have said many times before yes, I expect the 360 to outsell the PS3 Worldwide Holiday 2010. In Others PS3 will do very well but if it even stays #1 in Others it should be a small gap between PS3,360, and Wii. In Japan Wii and PS3 should both do well though I expect Wii to reclaim #1 in Japan Holiday 2010.(R.I.P 360 in Japan) America though will be what causes the PS3 to be behind the 360 and Wii this Holiday. Move never did much for America and with Kinect out you can almost even call Move dead in America...until 2011 where it could make a comeback with Killzone 3. I expect both 360 and Wii to dominate over PS3 in America Holiday 2010 but Others could end up even bigger then I thought and even it out but I don't see that happening...

Overall though I expect Wii to make a strong comeback and be #1 again Holiday 2010.

If MS sabotages GT5 production, then maybe kinteic could do that.

Move and kinetic sale well but what about their games ?

I didn't know that ps2 game was still selling so well?:

so you mean excluding sports champions, eyepet, heavy rain, MAG, resident evil, socom, tiger woods 11, and really since we don't have numbers for it all of the downloadable titles like tumble, pain, flower, planet mini golf.

yep, comparing the software sales of kinect which has absolutely no backwards compatibility to move (dismissing all of the games sold of course) is soo not at all a stupid stupid idea.

Move and Kinect are not the only 2 new items for Holiday 2010 in America you know...(looks at sig and cries)



Wait n see. Thats what I think people ought to do.



Tease.

looking by the numbers I think Kinect will push 360 ahead of ps3 for good and

 

perhaps reaching wii sales(lol)

lol at a $150 add on doing that.



I am not sure how you come to conclusion since the initial numbers are not really impressive. I would say it was within what is expected or less. And by the way, comparing it to Move sales will not reflect the truth that Microsoft is 10 Million consoles ahead of PS3 in NA, so I would have expected more sales for Kinnect.

 

I would also "think" that the price tag on Kinnect will be a show stopper, and you will see it in the next weeks.
