Who came up with this nonsense that Kinect has made $257m and Move $210m this month ?
$257m for ALL accessories.
The quoted source is comparing Feb 2010 to Feb 2011.
"Total industry sales rose 3% to $1.36 billion, compared to $1.33 billion in February 2010. Sales of video game hardware rose 10% ($467 million vs. $426 million), while software dropped ($601 million vs. $634 million). Video game accessories continued to rise, thanks to Microsoft's Kinect and Sony's PlayStation Move products ($257 million vs. $210 million)."

Here the accessories segment of the most recent NPD report:
"Accessories were the largest-gaining segment in the NPD report, up 22 percent to $256.9 million for the month, continuing a streak of strong accessory performance.
The Xbox 360 points card was the top-selling product in the category, with point cards as a whole up 55 percent compared to last February to represent 22 percent of the accessory market as a whole."

$56.5m for the MS point cards alone.
