TheSource said: Honestly, with PS3 / X360 purchasing rates per user declining steadily over the past several years I really can't see Move or Kinect reversing anything, as those items will only sell to 20% of the base or something by the end of 2011. Microsoft doesn't give shipment figures, but for PS3, purchasing rates are trending down fairly quickly, as is always the case once purchasing rates get to 3 games per user or so. FY 3/2009 - 4.56 games bought per PS3 user (103.7m / 22.3m) FY 3/2010 - 3.24 games bought per PS3 user (115.6 / 35.73m) FY 3/2011 - Trending for 2.65 games bought per PS3 user (135m / 50.73m) FY 3/2012 - 1.7 - 2.1 games per user * 63m users? That'd be 120m games bought (120m / 63m = 1.9) Hard to say exactly, but after you get below 3 games purchased per FY, the drop off is usually pretty steep. |
Well that's not surprising because you never give either of them a fair shot. I don't know why you giving your opinions on them anymore tbh!!
I see the bundled Wii sports counts in Nintendo SW for Wii. In which case Kinect Adventures will count and be at least 5 - 10 mill for 2011. Not to mention all the other Kinect SW that will sell alongside it. This is potential growth that they never had before, on top of the core SW they will sell. 2011 will likely be th peak year for MS SW.
