This is from our very own preorder article, look at how high Kinect Adventures and Kinect Sports are. Both ahead of the only Move title on there, and Kinect still has 10 weeks until launch.

etc, etc etc...

 

Do you guys get it yet?

sigh we are taljking about pre orders aren't we? That's what you talked about. so now go, and find some actual standings in 'current' pre ordeer charts (w/e you can find. amazon US/Uk or Toys R us etc.) Show us what you mean by Kinect is destroying Move according to pre orders. A quick search on n4g I can also find articles about how Move will beat kinect even if I disagree on it. So let's jsut stick your first comment that we are questioning here.

Good try but your attempted argument isn't valid towards me. None of these were from a point of view of a biased news source, let alone the fact that these are reports saying how well Kinect is "pre-ordering", not how well it will do. I've Seen plenty of articles about how Kinect will destroy move, or how kinect is going to fail and the Move succeed, none of these I posted are opinion pieces.

All of them are simply stating that Kinect is destroying Move in pre-orders, I'm sorry to break that to you. It is one thing to have an opinion, but to pretend to yourself that something doesn't count because you don't want it to is pathetic.

Did you even read the articles YOU posted? they are talking about sales in a few of them, not pre orders.

and here is what YOU said

"

Well luckily we can all go look at the preorders and... umm... yep looks like Kinect was/is destroying Move.

huh..."

So that's what me and darth etc are asking. Go check some pre order cahrts on both Move and Kinect now, and show us what you mean by check now and see how Kinect is destroying Move in those charts, simple. I would like to think you can comprehend such a simple question. So stop the spin, stop the BS and go show us what you meant, bring us charts so we can kill a few seals and agree with you. If you CAN'T then eat some crow and  gtfo

A quick check on data from my end agrees with the data in his links. If you're going to refute it, then do as he's done, and provide links and reasoning as to why you disagree. (This goes for everyone bitching about things.) Thus far, the argument for Kinect outselling Move has been made much stronger than vice versa. If you don't like that, fix it! Give me the links and data that counters it! Don't just tell me to search for it; doing that is what led me to find what I did.

Did you read through all the articles? Three of them are all the same news, but posted on the three different sites. The same applies to two more and then one of them is an 'Amazon Sales Indicator' article from June. None of these articles prove anything. The only one that could have any sort of decent information is one about the UK retailers, but judging from the article, they are all in PR mode and of hopes and promises of what Kinect could do. They want 10 pre-orders a day, it doesn't actually mean they're getting them.

Just because a person post's ten links to ten different pages, that doesn't make his argument any more valid unless the content of those links are actually useful to his argument.

The article being used in this thread in favour of the Move isn't useful either, it's just an opinion, a facebook poll and store feedback.

VGChartz pre-order charts can't even be used, because it's placing the PS3's weakest region, against the 360's strongest. People are also relying on the comparison of Kinect Adventures (which is a compulsory with the system) to Sport's Champion (which is optional).

I honestly couldn't care less about what device sell's better, I already know what I'm buying, but it's not exactly fair to gang up on the guy with weak info.
