Failure with 24m sold ?

Nice failure :D

If you're referring to my post, I didn't call kinect a failure.

I said if they do not include it, then expect it to fail, and expect nextbox to struggle.

For example,

They want to do "illumiroom". This would be all well and good if the projector was the peripheral.
They want to use kinect with tablets and use it to control other things. That would be all well and good if those other things were the peripherals.
They want to integrate it with core games. Consumers have spoken. They are not impressed with kinect integration into the core games.

You can't really go beyond 1degree of the source when it comes to peripherals.

It needs to go source -> peripheral

not source -> peripheral ->peripheral

If they choose the latter, then half the things we've been hearing about will never hit mainstream.

 

Furthermore, 24m people already have a kinect, why should they upgrade? So they can buy more peripherals?

oh and god help MS if they decide to make kinect 1 incompatible with nextbox. Expect vita sales.

Ladies and gentlman! The truth has spoken!

LOL
