From what I've seen in a nutshell:

Product blows, Games blow, will most likely still sell well.

I'm willing to bet that it won't, and price is only one part of it.


Price, and word of mouth are going to be against it no doubt, but I still think that with Microsoft likely to exaggerate its benefits in massive advertising pushes and with the new Xbox model giving a fresh approach, the casuals will buy it. Also with MS, price is flexible, though investors aren't going to be happy if this leads to more losses.

However, it won't be a competition killer or anything like that. Sony, and especially Nintendo have so many more tricks they could play up their sleeves.

One thing I think for sure though, is that Kinect is going to sell terribly among current Xbox owners. Microsoft has to somehow grab some of Nintendo's market - a market that Nintendo has pretty tightly locked down.
