Microsoft’s Project Natal: Bigger and Badder Than We Thought

Does anybody really think that MS will sell us the Natal add-on for less than $100? I just dont think that a few cameras and sensors and considering the extensive research that MS keeps talking about, that this can come in at less than $100 and certainly not less than $75. I really don't think that we will see many games at all for Natal, heck just as any add-on. Why would developers only want potential buyers not among the whole group of 360 people, but among the 20% that might actually get this? Developers just won't want to make many games for this unless ms forks over some major $$$$ for incentives.

dont mind me, i'm just being the realist over here.

I second this. There WiFi add-on is a hundred bucks, or was when it launched. This thing will be the cost of a PS3 when it comes out. By that I mean $199, cause the PS3 will have had another price drop. To top it off, it will not sell well and the games will be gimmicky like the Wii and PSeye.

It still is...lucky for me I found a bypass for that. And I have to say MS is either going to take a heavy loss by bundling NATAL with their system at either

A) Up the price of the 360 by 50-150 bucks

B) Add a 3rd SKU which includes NATAL and an elite with a bigger HDD at a hundred bucks more than the regular Elites.

C) Bundle NATAL for free?

 

OR

Sell it like Sony's Eye Toy but then the adoption for it might not be as huge as they want or expect it to be.
