1)8.8 million moves sold means a userbase of maybe 6 million, which is not breathtaking in 10 months.
2)In your second paragraph you just underline that you did not understand what I was saying. Sure there are youtube vids, but sony did not bring it to the market. Nintendo did, they won, sony played catch up and failed to do so.
Yeah, it is a bad software support, because nobody cares about the move support at all. Well except a very tiny minority like you. These games did nothing to sell move hardware and move hardware did nothing to sell the software. 3)Remember all this Move vs Kinect articles / threads / discussions last year? I think there is no way to spin the fact that Kinect was a greater success in every segment. Not just the hardware sales (the number you mentioned is only slightly above the number Kinect did in 60 days) There is no move only title that comes even close to 1 million unit sales, while Kinect has 7 already (Kinect Sports, Kinectimals, Joy Ride, Dance Central, Kinect Sport Season 2, Dance Central 2, your shape) Star Wars and Ryse look like they could reach that milestone as well. |
1) soo because it hasnt sold 50 bajillion units in under 9 months, it means it failed? im sorry but selling 8.8 million of something in 3/4 a year is amazing, especially for a perphiral.
2) you said "This Move had been in development before the Wii was announced is fanboy talk. " "And in these 4 years all Sony came up with is more or less the same experience as the Wiimote with bad software support."
well its not fanboy talk its true. and if you are going to go around claiming the Move is a wiimote clone, the same could be said (more easily) about the kinect and eyetoy. and after all nearly 10 years all Microsoft was able to come up with is more or less the same experience as the eyetoy with awful software support. much worse than move.
3) i didnt know we were debating on which device was more successful. its pretty obvious its the kinect, i thought i along with every one else (aparently besides you) were just arguing that Move it quite the sucess, after you said it was a failure. so if your measurement of failure is anything that sells less than kinect, i guess nearly everything fails.
and there are a few Moe only titles close to 1 million. Sports Champions (only bundled in america), and eyepet. but you are leaving off the biggest draw and success of the move, and that the core titles. Killzone, Resistance, Heavy Rain, Resisdent evil, SOCOM, LBP2, inFAMOUS 2, NBA 2k, MAG, etc.
