On the shelves, there were 31 Kinects, ~25 360 plus Kinect bundles, 5 PS Move Starter Kits, ~40 stand-alone PS Moves, ~10 stand-alone PS Eye, ~10 PS nunchucks, ~20 PS3 in various disk sizes and bundles and ~10 each of Black (the old one, not the new with MKWii), Red and White Wii bundles. Only for White Wii bundle there was a special offer to get it for 49€ (or 59€, I can't rememeber precisely) giving back some used games (they must belong to a special list, not any game will do). So it looks like nothing is sold out, but even after some weeks, PS Move Starter Kit sells quite well, with its shelf space almost empty at the end of the day. In the Kinect demo area there were two Southern Americans trying it, and they had some troubles navigating the start screen, during the two minutes I watched them, they couldn't start any demo game. During the ~15 min I stayed there, nobody bought any console or controller, only a little girl asked her dad for a red Wii (I wonder if she liked Mario or just the colour), but he answered her "later". |
Maybe I should have written it explicitly and clearer, I am referring to early situation (3 days after EU launch when I visited the shop) in Italy, not USA: when I wrote, mods were locking other threads about Kinect selling out or not and this one was the only one avaialble not referring explicitly to USA in the title. BTW here Kinect and 4GB bundle are in stock at online stores too. But sales are still slow for EVERY console here.
