I don't yet own an Xbox One. But I will eventually.
The only reason I'd say I'm against the unbundling of Kinect is that it fragments the user base. Which in turn gives developers less incentive to create a game that is unique to Kinect.
That being said, even Microsoft couldn't make convincing game software at launch to justify Kinect (shame on them). So why would a third party developer go above and beyond to innovate?
Overall, I think offering the choice to the consumer is a positive thing. It means MS is getting back to the early Xbox 360 days where they give everyone a ton of options to choose from and let them decide what's best. And when they do that, the masses will determine the best choice.
