That's the amzing thing, no killer app, no $500 million budget, no Oprah,no Ellen, no Media Buzz, being called a failure so many times, and it keeps on selling.

Imagine what it could have done with the ad budget Kinect had.

Could we have seen 8/9... Maybe 10 Million by the end of the year?

True. Fortunately, Move is still a huge success without "What if" even mattering.



                            

And this whole Kinect vs Move bizniz is just retarded...
Aswell as the "shipped" arguments since SONY themselves will NEVER know the true installbase.

Its just something VGC has made up, aswell as the fanboy community, to be able to pour gasoline on the fire of "who's really winning!" showdown.

These "Move has a below 50% sell-through" estimations are numbers based off of gut feelings. There are too many variables in the estimation of unique userbase of a controller. More so since parts of the Move is the PS Eye which has been on the market since last gen, aswell as old games being patched to support the controller. Might aswell do a "6/10 friends i know have a move controller, hence the real number is..."

If I had a killer 3pt range, was 6'6", could run like the wind, and had mad hops, I would be a great NBA player...too bad, I'm only 5'6", and can't shoot the rock worth a damn from that range...oh, not to mention I can't run like the wind either.

I got something. Remember when Sony was stuffing the chanels with Move, yet retailers keep asking for more.

that would give you 10-20 million a year contract, not $500 million.
