They are pushing it early... I guess Kinect and games are good enough for field testing in some quite harsh conditions. There'll be a lot of movement in and around the booth.

They don't, it's just a promotion at select stores.

Ironically, if you search "video games" on the Macy's website (or Kinect) -- you get:

We're sorry, we couldn't find any items that matched your search term.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.
