That's part of M$'s problem. Or, maybe not. I doubt that M$ would be this smart, They could possibly be waiting for the obvious launch window sellouts to be over so they can launch some great Kinect focused games. This will allow them to get another wave of press and actually have systems for the casual crowd to buy.

I doubt that this is really the case, but you never know. If they are smart, they will bundle some Kinect games with the XB1 come March or April. To stop from upsetting the early buyers, they just give them as digital downloads. This strategy is only really needed if things get really tough for M$.


Actually, this IS what they plan to do. Remember that document that leaked a couple years back that showed their Xbox business outline for this gen? It basically said that they would put all the focus on hardcore games and gamers first, because we are the ones who buy into consoles at launch, then slowly morph into a casual business like the Wii.

They're pretty much going to do what they did this gen, and people are falling for it.

So the idea is to have Kinect as a late adopter must-have feature that early adopters have nointerest in?


I think the idea was to have it there sort of an "we have this other thing too BTW" thing and then down the line, start to bring it more to the forefront.
