What amuses me is how the polling went, despite Kinect doing 54k so far in 4 weeks in Japan, and having actually increased a tad little bit last week over the week before, majority of people voted for 100k, so the general consensus is that Kinect is only going to sell about 90K more units in the next 2 years? Chyeah.

Lots of people here believe if they vote the worst option it'll happen

It's hilarious really.

I think you need to look at lifetime sales in Japan of the 360. I'd find it very hard to believe that it'd do so terribly as to get less than 25% market prenatration.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Yeah that's what I noticed, no matter how much evidence there is the polls usually end up this way - If the poll is PS3 related, the positive result gets the most votes, whereas the worst gets 2nd most. If the poll is 360 related, the worst option gets the most votes and the option that is the best gets the 2nd most votes.. I can see the correlation quite clearly :D

Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

Does Kinect come bundled with a console in Japan or stand alone only? If Kinect doesn't sell any systems it is going to hit a wall on how much it can sell.
