I really do believe M$ are in a perfect position to be number 1 in sales WW this holiday and for the next year. They have to chuck a ton of marketing behind this relaunch. 

With Natal 360 bundle for same or less than Wii, it really could be a new era this gen. I will re buy my 360 for a new model with Natal. 

To be honest I think many will. I dont think sales of individual Natal units will be that high. It will be mainly new 360 Natal bundles that will sell. Sending the 360 WW figures above Wii for sometime. 

I think we are in for a shock this holiday. Serious 360 sales. 


no we won't see 360 over Wii

moreover 360's rebranding won't make much impact as as they are just trying to do what SONY  did with PS3 rebranding last year.

PS3's rebranding only worked cause Playstation 3 was seen as a fat and expensive machine and so they wanted to rebrand it to make it a fun machine,360 is already that and still selling so low.I don't know what will they be rebranding for

NATAL will be the deciding factor but not 360's rebranding

 

also 360 plus NATAL will not be lower than Wii.It can be equal but no way lower.


While you are right as to why the PS3 rebranding worked,  didn't you forget the only reason the PS3 is still in the sales race? RRoD? Wouldn't rebranding help with that stigma a little? Huh? Maybe? Maybe not? Sure?


no it won't work on 360 and it won't change the RROD thing too

 

you aren't understanding why PS3 rebranding worked

 

PS1 and PS2 were the most succesful consoles ever and the PS still has a big name.I mean alot of people still know what Playstaion means.

everybody wanted to buy a PS3 but it was expensive and it has different genre's of games,not exactly like what the previously PS1 and PS2 had

also it was considered a serious kind of console and serious games.PS1 and PS2 were considered to be the fun machine

 

so rebranding and price cut worked

 

 

 

as for 360,it is already at a low price.it has already been bought by everybody that had XBOX and it already is know as the 'COOL' and fun machine.

Plus its only in US that it is popular and there is has been exhausted even at a very low price

RROD is an issue but not that much.A person that goes in to buy a console doesn't at that moment think whether the console will die or not.He goes to buy a consoles think how much fun he will have with it and all the excitement.

 

So 360 rebranding won't do much

 

 

now if NATAL is a hit then it will make a people buy 360's but rebranding won't play much of a part in it
