Forums - Gaming - Ubisoft: Kinect and Move will fail - Nintendo 3DS will rule the future

Mr Puggsly on 31 August 2010

Ubisoft fails quite often. They might know something...

Even Sony has little hope in the Move. They aren't exactly marketing it. But I think Kinect is going to be a success.

Well given Sony have already stated a 10-year plan for PS3 I don't think they ever saw Move as giving them a 15 year plan for PS3, though I think Move might help make the PS3 10-year plan a little more feasible than it was looking about 1 year ago. A dude from MS on the other hand stated that he reckons Kinect will give 360 another 5 years, which is somewhat less likely, given MS probably only had a 7-year plan for 360 in the first place, and I doubt Kinect will give 360 an extra 3 years.

In all seriousness, why develop games for something you deem a failure? Sometimes these devs puzzle me

Wow, are you even reading what you type?

 

Sales decide how long a console lives, not hardware, Move and Kinect aren't ging to ignite PS3 and 360 sales anywhere near enough to keep them going for these so called 10 year plans



Rumors indicate that it is planning on following the first approach, sticking a new, motion-sensitive controller onto an existing console. Our perspective is that this is the worst of the three options.

-Clayton Christensen back in 2007 already knew Move would be a bad idea

No, but that might be reflective of their recent comments about how all non-AAA games bomb on the HD consoles now and new IPs are too risky so RUSE might be their last one this gen.  ;)

This post makes me feel dyslexic.

I do agree with them that the 3DS will the future and I plan on getting one. Kinect and PS Move, not sure how they will do.

BTW: Why is Ubisoft talking so much shit lately?


Probably because their investors are breathing down their collective neck about why their current business model isn't making as much money as they thought they would.
