Natal likely won't do anything in Japan. Worldwide, it might give it a boost, but I really doubt it will make any significant changes in sales. Should be an interesting add-on though. Sadly, it's being overhyped by 360 fans and is bound to disappoint many. Just wait until the thing is at least somewhat close to coming out. |
On these boards there are 5 Natal sucks threads for every 1 Natal is cool... personally I'm just not sure how that can be considered over-hyping.
In fact, your estimation that it will have no effect in Japan, and very little effect everywhere else, seems MUCH more in tune with the sentiment of the majority of folks on VGChartz. I mean honestly, HOW many people are there here REALLY over-hyping this?
On topic, I'm excited to hear what GAMES they announce for Natal. I think the evolution of the controller (as brought to the mainstream by the success of Wii) is important to the development life-cycle of videogames going forward. IF (a big IF), Natal is a possible future of that evolution, yeah, then yes it would be cool to "be on the ground floor" so to speak.
I don't expect it to magically generate sales though. If the games are good and it offers new (and fun) experiences, you should HOPE it succeeds. IF it doesn't, then we should hope it fails.

Really? Well just show me 5 "Natal Sucks" threads for this thread, and then 5 more for every other positive thread about Natal you find. Go ahead, have a blast.
I don't think it will have a big effect in Japan because the console launched there years ago, and you're not going to see a massive change in opinion for the 360 there when a string of RPGs from big name developers barely made a dent. Now obviously people on Vgchartz that don't even like the 360 won't be hyping or overhyping Natal. But the 360 fans seem so excited that maybe something will draw in those casuals. Let's wait and see. Frankly, it looks like it could be interesting in some situations, but ironically not very versatile.
I hope it fails because I'd rather shoot with a remote than shoot with nothing.

Why would I go through the trouble of proving my opinion? Your opinion differs, and that is cool, but your opinion is NOT fact. WHy don't you SHOW me all the threads where this is overhyped? Have a blast too - HAHA!
If the best NATAL has to offer is shooting things with my hand, I absolutely hope it fails as well. Hell I've played LOTS of games that have guns as peripherals. That is not evolution, shit, we'd be going BACKWARDS.
