Q*K

Amazon U.S. and Best Buy's online site are no longer taking pre-orders for
Kinect, the motion-controlled game sensor for the Xbox 360 that launches
November 4th.
A quick check of Amazon's U.S. product page for Kinect bundled with one game
reveals that preorders are now available only through affiliates. You can
still pre-order bundles with a new Xbox 360, however. The Kinect page on
Best Buy simply says "Coming Soon." GameStop and Wal-Mart are still taking
orders.
The pre-order sellouts follow similar reports from the U.K. earlier this
month, and suggest that Microsoft has a hit on its hands. Or at least that
there are a lot of Xbox 360 users out there who want to extend the lifecycle
of the console for another couple of years with the new gadget.
I tried it in a demo booth at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo a couple months
ago, and it worked quite well once the booth's staffers told me how to get
out of the menu and into the game.
But I'm not a gamer, and not really in the target demographic for Kinect.
The lines for each of the two demo booths were about 10 people deep, and
consisted mostly of families with pre-teen children (like you'd expect at
the zoo) not just hardcore gamers. People seemed to be enjoying it and didn'
t want to be peeled away. It's just anecdotal, but it suggested to me that
Kinect has potential to break out of the typical demographic gamer ghetto of
18 to 34 year old males.
Kinect will cost $150 in the U.S, and Microsoft expects to sell 3 million by
year's end.
