Make no mistake, Kinect fizzeled.
500K isn't that steller of an opening. Esspecially considering how much advertising was spent on Kinect. 500 million on advertising. Remember that isn't even a product cost. This means there will be more fun on thier income statement when we take into consideration CGS.
Kinect really needed to be a blow out. The only hope it has is word of mouth, but seeing as how the device is not up to par, I suspect that the word of mouth will decrease sales.
People will think I'm crazy, but Kinect will burn the Microsoft Game Division to the ground. Sony was able to just brush Move to the side. Microsoft wont be able to hide the huge losses, and investors wont put up with the silly games anymore.
