the red wii bundle will win its only a limited edition and just in time for the holidays so you know its gonna sell out the fastest its the cheapest as well so that will do something for it

Bigpappy5693d ago

Kinect will dominate all console sales this holiday season. I cant believe after all the evidence all around you, you guys still are denying what is going on. Go on Amazon (US) right now and tell us all what the going price for the Kinect stand alone is. Hint: $150 was a bargin.

rwarner1745693d ago

Bigpappy,

Yep it will sell well at first and then it will halt when people tire of it and realize that its total garbage. Advertising just gets your foot in the door, once its discovered that its a poorly thought out concept its sales will drop dramatically. Although you never know, people were dumb enough to buy the wii in the first place.

Fox015693d ago (Edited 5693d ago )

Move might be selling relatively well worldwide, but it still hasn't done anything to boost the PS3. Perhaps people are waiting for christmas to purchase the PS3+Move bundles?

Kinect isn't out yet.

Wii as usual is going to sell like crazy this christmas.

fasterthanu225693d ago

$150 was a bargain. I just looked on amazon and saw the standalone kinect sensor with kinect adventures going for $280 dollars. Holy $hit I hope there aren't any people paying anything like that.

AAACE55693d ago

Some might be quick to say the Wii will be the big seller, but Move and Kinect will be serious contenders.

The only thing that hurts Move and Kinect is price. Most people might consider just buying Move or Kinect and use it for their existing console. Either way, you are spending nearly the same amount as a Wii just for motion controllers. Others will look at the bundles for move and Kinect and realize they are paying $400 for a bundle, when they can just get a Wii for $200 and use the other $200 for extra controllers and games.

It'll be interesting to see what happens this holiday!

Dac2u5693d ago

Bigpappy: The going price of Kinect on amazon is $280, but it's a scam. If you read the fine print, you'd see that it's going to ship after the release date and is sold by some third party that's trying to make some quick cash off of a bunch of idiots. You can go to any number of online retailers and pre-order Kinect right now, for $149.99.

I will agree that Kinect will probably sell better than Move, but good sales figures don't make me want Kinect and all its shovelware. Kinect will sell to the casual crowd and the Hannah Montana/Justin Beiber crowd like crazy, but that's not something to brag about, imo. Isn't the Xbox already plagued with those kids as it is?

All_4_One5693d ago

Yeah, PS3 cost thousands of dollars within the first couple days of launch. Yet, many people realized they could just wait a little bit. Applying that same logic to kinect, what if the first batch of buyers realizes Kinect might not be that great, and word of mouth prevents it from being a smash hit? Lots of new electronics see high demand at launch, it`s called hype.

EYEamNUMBER15693d ago

this is an article about the BUNDLES are you guys seriously thinking a LIMITED EDITION red MARIO wii bundle that is the cheapest of all the bundles at 199.99 during the holidays wont sell out the fastest out of the 3 bundles?

really? do some of you guys really think that?

and on the kinect side it depends if it goes smooth with the kinect working well in the homes of the people who got it the 1st 3 weeks

avengers19785693d ago

Not gonna say witch one will win, but I want a PS3 320 gig without the move(I already have that)
My 80 gig is filling up quick, and I was wanting to get the slim anyway.

WoshJills5693d ago (Edited 5693d ago )

You can buy a 320GB hard drive for $60 like I did.
...not that you're going to read this again.

here's the bundle:

avengers19785692d ago

Thnx @WoshJills, but I want the slim because it's a hell of a lot quiter, and more energy efficent, or so I've heard.

solar5693d ago

lol. even tho you have 21 disagrees at the time of my post, i agree with you. the Wii will again rule the holiday season. the price sells it alone.

ilikestuff5693d ago

theyre all gonna lose to the gamegear, mark my words

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle30d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7730d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg36d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree36d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai36d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde37d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy38d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12537d ago (Edited 37d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
