Current Kinect pricing is a marketing scheme!

I dont know. MS sell a $100 wifi add on before so..

Before? They still do. My guess is the wifi adapter is purchased by those with a lot of disposable income. And they must sell pretty well considering there hasn't been a price cut on them.

The Kinect is part of the 360's rebranding and the price needs to be competitive with other motion devices.

yeah it is at $150 its cheaper than sonys move which will cost close to $200 to get more than 1 player

it's actually cheaper to buy them all separately.

Well the Move bundle cost $100. Throw in the Navigation controller and that's another $30.

A lot of people like to play games with their friends and the Move is intended to appeal to the casual market. Another Move controller is gonna cost $50. Throw in $30 if you want to play a game that requires the Navigation controller. So a Move bundle, additional Move controller, and two Navigation controllers will run you about $210 plus tax.

Also, I was looking at The Fight: Lights Out. From what I can tell that game requires two Move controllers for each player. So if you wanna play that game split screen it'll require four Move controllers. So that experience will run $250 plus tax.

Basically I'm saying the full Move experience isn't cheap. The full Kinect experience shouldn't run more than $150 and I presume the real price will be around $100.

toshay. in your argument somebody's real friendly. while in mine you haft to buy your own.
