Did people really not see this coming as soon as they announced the Kinectless SKU?

They were always going to be bad numbers after Microsoft suddenly dropped the undroppable, integral, core feature of their multimedia machine.

The Kinectless model was announced in May, not April.  April's numbers won't be effected by that announcement.  May and the first week of June, however, should.

But they wanted to cover the steaming **** that they already knew was releasing within 3 days. (April NPD)

Oh yeah, fo sho, doesn't cover it up though lol :)

For some people it doesn't, for some it may. The kinectless sku positive news will be no doubt more widespread than the negative NPD numbers news. Maybe if there would be no Xbone news recently, the NPD news would be more widespread.
