Just make the Kinect optional. It solves everything. Sell it separately to people who are into that sort of thing.

It would have the added bonus of reducing the price of the console. Lower price = more people buy it at launch.

Forcing the Kinect on everyone is just a lose-lose situation.

I don't think it solves everything. The major problem with Kinect this generation was that not everyone who had an Xbox 360 had one, so after the initial push of software petered out, it got very few games. If developers could count on every Xbone owner having a Kinect, more of them would see fit to develop stuff for it.

So a Kinect with every Xbone makes perfect sense. Forcing it to be connected at all times, less so. It's pretty clear that they just want to listen to me fap.
