1 million Kinects sold wordwide

4.6
Microsoft has made its first Kinect sales-related announcement today; the device has shifted 1 million units in 10 days worldwide.

The company is on track to sell 5 million by the end of the year it says, pointing out that the madness that is this week’s Black Friday should give the peripheral a nice push. And then there’s Christmas, of course.

“This is a great start to the holiday season,” Don Mattrick, president of the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft, says in the announcement, “and we will continue to work with our retailer partners to keep pace with high demand and deliver against our plan to sell more than five million Kinect sensors worldwide by the end of this year.”

The device became available in NA on November 4th and EU last Wednesday.

rikin1995 wow u guys are all a bunch of haters. coming from someone who prtty much only plays call of duty, playing kinect was probably the most fun ive had playng a video game in a long time. i played sonic racers and tho it may sound kinda gay im prtty sure i had never played a sonic game before that it was still one of the most fun things ive done in a long **** time
Nothings better than having a little fun with REAL friends Really playing outside Kinect is gay...and if they can sell 1million copies of that gay shit.then lower the **** xbox live subscriptions BECAUSE THE RENT IS TOO DAMN HIGH.
