Kinect 1 million sold in a week and a half.

Considering that Microsoft spent 500 million to advertise this thing that kinda not impressive through that might change in a long run.

Projectnatalfan did you buy kinect?johny300

yes day 1....

[QUOTE="Bad-School-Girl"]Shipped. It only sold around 200,000.HarlockJC

Is that a legitimate question? :P

So its still over a million behind Move and hasnt blown away sales like lems were saying it will, wow this is too funnyTintedEyes

This is great news. I hope it flops flops flops and microsoft/sony go back to focusing on the games

They said they are speculating that it would outsell move...... They didn't say it did.

Good job Kinect! "we now return you to our regular Cow DC programming"

Thats good for MS, though its not quite what was expected. The hype that was built here seemed as if it would be impossible to find one anywhere. Thats not the case near me, every store has quite a few laying around.

it's a good start, but not too great. Better then move I suppose, but as the tittle correctly says: "Only 4 million to go before 2011 starts."ohthemanatee

I think it's a good start, better then move's.

but is it great? imo no, it isn't

Well Aaron greenberg claims its sold through. Don Matrick reported "sold" in investor terms means shipped. So what to believe i really do not know. But either way its way below what i thought it would sell.

500 Million in advertising and thats all they could get in 10 days. But black friday should give Move and Kinect good boosts. After the christmas season is when the real battle begins. Who will be willing to spend 150 to play Kinect after all the hype has died down? Lets wait and see.

TintedEyes

you see, that's the thing, I google both the EU and US numbers for move and the vibe I got was that the EU numbers are sold and US numbers are shipped

as for Kinect... still not sure whether this is shipped or sold, but the link does say "sold" instead of "shipped" so i'm more inclined towards that the first one

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"] 2.5 million actuallyDoolz2024

No one will ever know sold through numbers because its very very very hard and almost impossible to track sold through numbers. If you exec claiming sold through numbers don't believe it. But believe their shipped numbers because they can actuaally keep track of how many they have shipped

Honestly, I was expecting a little more given all the hype **** theyve been doin.

I expected more considering Oprah was on the Kinect train.

Crazyguy105

Are you people really serious, these numbers are incrediable for a device that been out a week in a half, and still hasn't launch all over the world yet. You can't even campaired this to the move, lets say the move did sell 2.5 million (which we all know it meansshipped) it took them 2 months to reach that. When the kinect is on pace to sell4-5 buy end of theyear. Ithink people are under estimating the sales Christmas produce. And for the 500 million marketing, kinect has sold a million which = 150 million already. And kinect is soldout at a lot of places.

[QUOTE="coltgames"]500mill advertisement only a mill worldwide not impressedopex07

thats the only 2 mrkets the 360 has. The US is by far their hugest market. followed by the UK. And thats it

[QUOTE="coltgames"]500mill advertisement only a mill worldwide not impressedopex07

Still 1.5 million behind the Move, but it's doing well.UpJTBoogie

It is all shipped numbers anyway, they mean nothing

thats the only 2 mrkets the 360 has. The US is by far their hugest market. followed by the UK. And thats it

Blaze-Agent

Okay.... do you really believe that Japan will buy this? Japan does not buy 360's already so why would they buy this

fueled-system

I think what he means is that you're comparing the first 10 days of US sales and the first 5 days of EU sales Kinect got to the first month sales Move got from the EU and US respectivly

[QUOTE="vaderhater"]

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"] its shipped, isnt this the way manufactures always count it?TintedEyes

EDIT: @mantee, still though the move and kinect shipped records were relativly the same but even so when Kinect releases in the other markets it wont see much light.

kenmid

actually. The 2.5 million moveshipped came in just a month and its minus Japan.

Move Will pickup steam during the holidays and black friday too. So its not like the Move will stop selling.

Tack-On the fact that Sony did not need a 500 million marketing budget, then you will see why these Kinect Numbers seem less impressive. If they had a move like ad-campaing and sold 1 million in 10 days then i would have been impressed.

But how it holds up after launch is what really counts.

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"][QUOTE="vaderhater"]So then Sony who had no $500 million Ad campain shipped out 2.5 million in preparation for its Move launch but MS oddly enough only shipped out 1.5 million. :lol: LOL Oh OK then guys.

They're actually just rubbing it in to TC because he was the one posting threads on how Kinect would be an uber monster because of Oprah and Ad Campaign.

My stance, neither Kinect nor move will be monster sellers because they aren't required to play most games, unlike the Wii.

But this was all done minus a 500 Million marketing campaign, minus the holiday buying spree aura. Which by the way help move more than any launch ad campaigncould have. Thats why these numbers seem less impressive than what they actually are.

This advertising was twice the budget of the Xbox 360 launch. Thats preety telling

we'll just have to wait for it's first month sales so we can compare
