Forums - Sales - Move will outsell Kinect this Christmas

Ollie the Octopus, cousin of the famous Paul predicted it! i think that will clear away any doubts!

 

"Ollie is Paul's cousin, and therefore psychic by association - although it's unclear what Ollie's track record is in predictions. Mind you, Ollie and Paul shared a tank when they were young. But Paul left Weymouth Sea Life Centre and his cousin behind when he dared to dream big and shipped out to Germany in search of fame and fortune. Alone, Ollie went to Blackpool. 

There Ollie worked on his craft, picking between various boxes all stuffed with mackerel, his favourite food. His cousin Paul preferred mussels to fuel his predictions.

Online shopping comparison website Kelkoo tracked Ollie down to ask him about the fortunes of Move and Kinect this Christmas. Kelkoo videoed Ollie's performance."

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

d21lewis:  Well said sir!   But none of my cousins are umm.... challenged.  Maybe I'm the oddball.  

OP:  Not saying it's impossible but AD budget, most of the alleged industry experts and 360s strength in the west would argue against the cephalopoidal prognosticator.  Kinect/360S will do better in NA and  E.U. where the holidays have a greater effect on sales.  I'm surprised at how many of the 360 owners on site are giving it a chance.  I thought they were traditional 'core' gamers not trend-loving health nazis.  Who knew?  Who knows how much new HW it will move but Move is doing twice what I expected.  I'm sure it's just a fad like Tickle-Me-Gizmo or FPS.  Otherwise I'm going to have to get in a lot better shape to play video games next gen. 



Choose wisely Ollie. You saw what happened to Paul when he turned against Germany. You anger the wrong crowd and you'll be in a world of hurt. Unfortunately whatever you pick in this case, you'll be aggravating a lot of people on this site. :P Oh you picked Move?... bad move...

Ask me about being an elitist jerk

Time for hype

Great news! :D



in sheer numbers? Yeah Move will probably sell more units, given it has the opportunity to sell up to (3?) controllers ect to one set up.
