>> The first few weeks of any new console peripheral should be its best weeks. What are we talking about here? We're talking about about any console that has a established userbase as any of the three do.. Sony has the smallest this time, but what we should be looking at is percentages. Looking they are 3rd place in game sales and console sales one can only say Move will help a bit, but you can't expect anything miraculous. I think it maybe slightly boosting sales from casual gamers who have not owned a console yet..I dont expect Kinect to be alot better sales-wise then Move, but looking at game and console sales it should do alittle better.. Something I touched on above, the vast majority of the people in this world still dont own a gaming console.. so even though it'll probably be minute (small) Kinect and Move will convince a small number of people do buy consoles.. It also happens when big titles like Halo Reach come out, which doubled console sales in the UK, but these effects can only be seen for weeks typically.. I dont think Move will do more then 5 million LIFETIME. And when I say lifetime, Im going on the talk that Sony is trying to release their next console a bit before MS this time as rumors have it they are indeed burning the midnight oil trying to get this to happen.. I think this Gen will be officially phased out in 2 yrs (nearing 3 ) tops.. and gimmicks like Move and Kinect are little things to help increase the life of these consoles.. Anyone honestly knows the hardware of both systems is greatly outdated as CPU and GPU advancements happen much faster now then 10 yrs ago when the PS2 came out.. |
That's why the new Wii will be so epic
Or any eighth gen console for that matter (look-no bias here!)
