While we all had a feeling this is where the pricing was going to end up, now that we know I think we can officially say that MS is going for massive sales this holiday season.  At this pricing Kinect may sell over 5 million this holiday and the $199 slim Arcade launching in August is going to be massive.

I thought MS blew it at E3 not discussing these details, but better late than never.


Microsoft was smart not burying the details of the Kinect launch and bundles at E3.  Now a month later, they can keep Kinect in the news and they got to undercut Sony's PS3/Move bundle by $100.  I also think they made a wise decision of packaging Kinect Adventures with it instead of Kinect Sports.  Everybody has already played Wii Sports.  At Least Kinect Adventures has the perception of being a different experience.

Barring an unforeseen disaster Microsoft is primed for a great holiday.
