and the next one was an utter flop.
in fact, the Kinect did a lot more harm then good for MS when looking at the big picture. it helped drive MS and Xbox into a direction that resulted in them losing massive market share, and being put into a position where they had to cut the price of their console and use promotions heavily for it to be able to compete in pretty much just 2 markets.
the kinect is pretty much done for now, no new content, the xbox one its self has removed a lot of kinect features because it nobody used them, and no one cares for it, not even MS.
for a product that was meant as a massive selling point for a console, it sure did prove to be a massive failure when it was one of the main reasons people didnt want said console. and honestly its deserves its failure, because its garbage gaming peripheral.

Isn't this about the original Kinect. That was a win in every business metric you can think of.
Kinect 2 failure. There are many failures in gaming. From sony, ninty and ms. So what?
And if this is also about disingenuous promos from execs then I think we should look at the absolute horseshit and lies spouted prior to the ps2 from Krazy ken.

Why do you shift the conversation from microsoft to sony?
