Sales won't show a significant bump until 360 owners are no longer satisfied.

Hmmmmm that could be extremely problematic for Microsoft, perhaps they should have dropped support for the 360 years ago?

Fact is, it would need to be substantially cheaper than PS4 to make a dent and overcome its lasting negative press. Same reason why Wii U even after all the awesome games of holidays 2013 (and upcoming MK8) still won't rebound to massive success. The negative press in the beginning and the collective thought of "doomed" simply outweigh all else.

Definitely not why the Wii U didn't rebound.

OP: Wait for the new advertising campaign to kick in.

I'm pretty sure not a lot of people even know about this yet, so obviously it isn't selling right now.

Proof that gamers want Kinect! Thanks Gribble!

I know I do and would rather have had a price cut than a cheaper Kinectless version.

Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.
