The 360 was already at $300 as well. Can you point to anything in the data that suggests that the Kinect was more responsible than the 360 S for sales levels from Nov. 2010 onward, or that it had any measurable impact at all past the 2010 holidays? |
24 million Kinects sold in just over 2 years, reports in 2011 stating 2/3 of console sales were the Kinect bundle, it was aimed at a different audience than the existing 13-30 year old male demographic and Microsoft shifted their content and marketing from "hardcore" to "casual".
You're the only person I can think of who doesn't agree that Kinect was a massive system seller and the primary driver of 360 sales from holiday 2010-2012.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
