except it didnt have a price drop
Oddly I remember hearing this in 2009
? This is the first time the Wii won against the 360 since June 2010. So what are you jonesing about? Apparently it is new since it this is the first time it has won since.
? See that ignorance talking out your mouth. So if the Move was boosting sales like the 360 would u be saying the same thing? What is funny is that you ignore that the 360 outsold the PS3 the whole year. The PS3 with it's own version of motion control cost the same as the Kinect. It sold 8mil in 60 days. The Wii won December it lost the last 6 months. What is hard to understand. Actually read your facts before you before you speak. Get off that fanboy ignorance.
You don't seem to be paying attention then. the 360 is in the 5th year. By your logic of Wii in the 4th year that means the 360 should be declining then. Correct?
I never said the Wii was dying and if I recall your original post didn't state anythin about people saying it was dying. We are discussing about the comment you made that clearly says it is slowing down which it is.
It sold less than a year ago the same time. Yes it is slowing down. The 360 is the only console to see a sales increase while everything else dropped. So in that since yes it is not selling as much and if you have paid attention to this past year the sales have dropped compared to last year. This is by the way the first time the Wii has outsold the 360 after 6 months now.
Yet your the idot that doesn't realize this is about the NPD numbers for the U.S. It clearly doesn't need to be pointed out to us as we are already aware. If your butthurt about the numbers then please do YOURSELF a favor and move on.
@ Wh15ky,
But this isn't about you and me and our preference of what we like. This article isn't about one individual. It was about the climate of the motion controls and the climate has shown that MS is benefiting more with Kinect than what Move is to Sony.
I had Move for one weekend after having Kinect for over a month during the beta. My family didn't care for Move. It works as presented but it simply isn't as fun as Kinect is. If they had ...
Bye
"-I made it clear in the article that so far the Move games haven't set the world ablaze but that they could in the next six months. Could being the key word"
Isn't this what people were claiming was supposed to happen 6 months before release? While others claim that Kinect would not sell like it has. Yeah your right it could or it could go the same course it is currently going now.
"-Xbox's fan base is mostly core gamers and ...
Bingo.
What is funny about the article is that the claim that the "reviews" for both Move and Kinect are supposed to make a point.
Move gets "great" reviews but Kinect gets "murky" reviews. Your article uses a source that was on November 5th about Kinect reviews. Um well, it is over 60 days now. How is does the climate look now? Clearly reviews do not make or break what is going to happen. Not everyone hardcore or casual ...
Oh shut your whining ass up. Here you are claiming how I am an idiot but look how quickly your ready to talk about Kinect and shovelware. I own a PSP, 5 PCs, 2 PS3s, 4 360s, Iphone 4(JAILBROKEN), Iphone 3GS(JAILBROKEN), 2 Ipod Touches. Oh, I also was a beta tester for Kinect and I own two of those. Whoops guess I lost my "hardcore gamer card". Again where were you when it came to the 360 getting hacked, or the original Xbox? Yeah you get your head out of your ass.
It is amazing coming to N4G and seeing how little alot of people here know. I mean just reading some of the comments becuase of their blind love for Sony shows how little you know about the world of hacking. This lawsuit was a stupid mistake by Sony but it seems like it was their only option with reports that a firmware can't even stop it. Funny how no uproar comes from the world of PSP hacks and 360s but the PS3 OMG we got a situation lol.
LMAO. Who is posting these updates? This is the like the 6 update of Amazon for the bundle that has been in the 100s on the rank then the 60s and now just broke 50. I could get like other post that it is number 1 on a chart but how the heck is this(or any product) news that it is sitting at 48......after Xmas has already passed?
Yep and the thing is it doesn't make the PS3 a bad product all of a sudden. It simply states what consumers are more interested in this product like they were with the PS2 and the NES before it due to promotion. Didn't seem like this was an issue before this generation.
Proof that bloggers, whiners and fanboys reactions about who wins E3 is irrelevant. I love how "oh my god" MS had the worst conference but ignored that they actually gained from their decisions. Your in your 5th year and your product goes up because you throw support behind it and obviously consumers are choosing what option works for them. Good to be a multiplatform owner.
@ nopunctuation,
Yeah you need to educate yourself. Clearly you have no idea what you are talking about.
Onlive isn't doing anything new.
So where are you getting the numbers from that it didn't "help" the console sales for the 360? The 360 was selling before Kinect came out. The 360 bundle has been selling since it was released. NPD isn't even out yet so what "facts" are you basing your opinion on that Kinect hasn't helped console sales when the last couple of months says otherwise?
because stock ran out. MS stated what happened in Dec. Thet actually sold out
