| PizzaFaceGamer said: KINECT is the FASTEST selling device EVER in history

I've read several articles claiming this to be true, and maybe it is.
However as ioi pointed out in another thread, Kinect has not suffered the severe shortages that plagued the Wii back in 2006/2007. For well over a year Wii systems were incredibly difficult to come by; the day that stores were expecting new shipments you could see a line of people already waiting outside for them to open their doors, ready to snatch them up immediately. Kinect was sold out here and there, sure, but could still be found at many stores and Amazon even before Christmas, and is currently readily available at most stores (at least in my area) including Amazon. Not to mention that Kinect is capitalizing on the expanded market that Nintendo themselves helped establish four years ago.
Of course this doesn't change the fact of your statement, and I'm not coming down on Kinect at all; I think its success is tremendous for our industry, but let's see if by next holiday it has continued to outpace the Wii in the same respected time frame...
