| Lostplanet22 said: You guys forgot that Kinect was also available for PC. 24 million = X360 + PC. Ofcourse the majority of the sales were for X360 and that is why we see a big gap between MS and Vgchartz.... (not that I say vgchartz is totally correct though).. |
Well Kinect for Windows released on February 1st 2012. The shipments from launch until December 2011 were 18m, we had it at 15m sold, so the difference was already there. Not sure if retailers ordered ~2m Kinect for Windows by then already.
Also last NPD Kinect numbers were revealed (for the month, not LTD) and they were twice as high in the US as we had it (50k vs. 100k). I wouldn't be surprised if that happened a lot more this and/or last year in the slower months.
EDIT: I just looked at the graph and it makes no sense. Goes from 10k a week from February and March to suddenly 4.5k in one week in April and now we have it back at 12.5k for the most recent week.
