My local Gamestop tells me that Kinect isn't selling very well and there are plenty still in the back.

you should create a thread about the kinect failure then

it would compensate the ones created about kinect success ...


Ya that would be great.  So you guys can be eating crow when the NPD comes out.

I think 5 M before the 2009 year end is a strong possibility.

If I eat crow, then, you will join me ;)

Ofcourse, that was sarcasm. The Kinect is a massive success.

But you seem to on some sort of crusade to convice people its crap and nobody should want it.

Grow up a little.

After less than a week on sale, US retailer GameStop has picked Kinect as the first round winner in the Great Motion Controller War of 2010

Head office obviously thinks differently.



Tease.

Hmmm... well I'm not bashing and I'm not really praising.

I have more interest in this particular motion device than the others. But that interest doesn't make me go bash other peripherals I don't give a crap about.

I'll spin this baby!!

Gamestop gets a better margin on selling a Kinect then Move! thus making Kinect sales better for them!

Ha! beat that!

If i may.

 

Move has navigation controller

main move controller

and eye.

 

Now all those things if sold right from a salesman point of view has a lot more range of profit for gamespot or any other retail store then 1 unit. The extra controllers have always been the profit makers, not the original units. Kinect is a freak of nature with profit from the top. But they had to because they wouldnt make it back by extra controllers. Only stands for Kinect and power plug with console bundle (console bundle doesnt include the power plug for kinect only the standalones include the power according to @xboxsupport )
