I think it's a little too soon to say that. If Kinect Sports Rivals and D4 fail to wow, then maybe Microsoft should consider unbundling it. Don't judge the new Kinect until you've at least played some Kinect games.

Thats pretty much the problem though...theres no Kinect games at the moment.
MS should have had Kinect Sports Rivals at launch.
But yeah i too would wait to see how Kinect specific software does and if it moves hardware or not.
On the other hand MS is losing a lot of ground to Sony in their home market...and lets be honest here its probably not just PS3 owners upgrading. I mean its almost double the sales...price is also a factor but probably not the only one. PS4 seems to have the momentum and backing of most gamers across the world, so MS cant afford to wait for too long. I'd give it a few months and make a decision before the end of year holiday shopping season.

Well, at least we have a release date for Kinect Sports Rivals now, and it's only 2 months away. If it turns out to be a good game it should go a long way towards proving that the Kinect is worth the extra $100+. If I were Microsoft I'd offer a $500 bundle that comes with the game and take the loss, if that doesn't get the casual crowd interested in Kinect nothing will, and then it'll be time to unbundle the Kinect.

I dont think its going to do much for Xone IMHO. It will still be 500 bucks. Are the casuals going to jump in to play an updated version of a game they probably bought twice before on the much cheaper 360? Doubt it. Wii U casusl and 3ds games havent done much for those two systems. I like Kinect Sports it was great but i dont htink the new one will do much for the system
