Lolz, well, since it's been seeling the other two out for a few years now..... *sarcasm

I think it will sell very well actually, but the PS3 slim is a very hot item now too

Seeing how Msoft showed Kinect on prime-time TV on SpikeTV and MTV, and Sony and Nintendo only showed their new tech in E3. I'd say the public will be seeking a product they are made aware of. Msoft hit the mark.

Just checked Amazon UK, and new 360 is top in preorders there too (has been since it was announced). Second biggest market (i think), and largest online retailer....looking good for July 16th.

Say what you want about MS, but they handled the Kinect launch like a dream. Anouncing a new 360 that is "Kinect Ready," is the type of marketing that gets the uninformed to buy a new 360 because they think "they need it" in order to use Kinect. Not to mention the allure of people being able to "play" games without the hassle of a controller. I think this will give 360 a huge boost all the way through the holidays.

Yeah it on there but not nearly in the same league of sales kinect is in.

If that is true, it goes to show System Wars is not indicative of the population at large.

There are a lot of reasons why Move isn't selling as much. 1. Kinect and the 360 S were both announced at around the same time, so casuals picking up the new one are just buying both together. 2. No controllers means it sets itself apart from the other two, even though the quality of games hasn't really been proven. It's just more appealing to casuals. 3. Like player_leo said, it was broadcasted on a few different TV channels and on the biggest HD screen in Times Square. 4. Prerecorded trailers of Kinect give the illusion of it being better than it actually is.

It's outselling the PS3 on that list however. I don't expect it to outsell the Wii for long, but other regions (US and UK - two huge markets) have given it signs of strong momentum.

I know I was being silly, just shows different markets are different. Look how much PC stuff is in their top 10.

people know that MS 360 is going to sell like Hotcakes and also KNow Kinect is going to sell and they have to eat crow. You can say there is alot of people worried that MS is going to succeed in what they set out to do. Im very happy for them, I prepaid my new 360 and cant wait to get Kinect!!!

In the long term, of course they do - always have, otherwise we'd be playing Sega.

No one is in that bad of a hole so they don't matter imo and sega is still making games so you still get to play sega games without the system.

Meant Sega systems. And of course they matter, sales make a company money or provide a system with more games and support from third parties.

It is a new hardware revision and the fanbase is huge after all so it's to be expected.

You didn't even answer his question. Sales shouldn't and really don't matter unless you're somehow making money off of the 360 and Kinect selling so much.

If sales don't matter can you explain to everyone another way you can tell if people really like something.Or do you want gamespot and other review sites to tell you?

Sales do matter, just ask anyone who runs a business

I think theres a solid chance of the slim keeping it in the lead for a while now, but I think that with all its HQ quality releases the wii will be back on top fairly soon. PS3 all depends on how well move does tbh with you

The new 360 design looks pretty good, kinect looks unique, move looks like a copy of the wii so im guessing only hardcore fans will buy that, kinect will hit casuals more than move will.
