This question feels a little misguided: Why are comparing a single showcase event to an entire several-year-long period? Maybe a better question would be whether the late-Wii/early-Wii U years were better or worse than the Kinect years…at which point — though not being too greatly informed the Kinect period of gaming — I would prolly have to say Kinect had it worse. The reason being that Microsoft went from the console manufacturer who, against all odds, finally caught up to Sony…to all the sudden being the company looking to replicate the success of NWii, which would serve as “the beginning of the end” for the Xbox brand as the years which would follow this would lack any new and exciting first-party experiences.
