But Move is dead, dead, that what the internet told me.


MOVE made almost as much money as Kinect. LOLWUT.  Isn't that exceptional?!


Yes it looks like there were more Move units than Kinect sold, Who predicted that? Noone

Move wouldn't suddenly jump above Kinect in U.S when it's outselling it 5.1

I imagin the Move revenue includes all things move, as with Kinect as well.

you failed to congratulate Move. 

you all failed to use your brains.

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.

$56.5m for the MS point cards alone is pretty impressive.
