How much to trade it back in?

[Al Bundy]

$75, and they'll sell it for $139.99.

[GuruStarr78]

$75?! doubt it! more like $50 in trade.

[Anarki]

America gets 149$
UK gets £200(250$)

"$75, and they'll sell it for $139.99"

lol Typical Gamestop as usual...

O-T

So, it was True, there wasn't any "testing the water" with the amount of excuses I was hearing since that Rumor if natal/kinect at $149

It's Really Expensive, they need to Realize that it's only an add-on and people will not see it as a new "Complementary Hardware" or something as important as that...

Edit:

Still a Rumor, forget what I wrote in the first sentence...

[qface64]

sell it for 139.99 sounds crazy

don't you remember you only get 5 dollars off for a used product lol

[HolyOrangeCows]

$150 for the Halo/COD crowd that makes up the 360 now
or
$300/$400 for the Soccer Moms who need to get the bundle.

I don't see either one happening much.

[Oner]

Plus this

Kinectimals ~ $60
Kinect Joyride ~ $60
Kinect Adventures ~ $60

Wow...just WOW! MS has ABSOLUTELY lost their minds...

[qface64]

i really don't deny this rumor this is most likely true for this pricing to come out during e3 after microsofts conference and with all those 149.99 rumors supporting it this is most likely true

[pangitkqb]

Honestly, I love my 360, but from Msoft's E3 presentation I haven't seen any games for Kinect that stand out from the Wii I already own.

Honestly: Where is the quality, highly interactive, high budget, engaging, AAA game that will convince me that Kinect is MORE THAN WII HD.

SAME FOR YOU SONY, I DON'T NEED A WII HD.

[qface64]

bubbles ive been saying the same thing so far

[pxpxp]

No wonder they didnt say it at the press conference. They themselves know its overpriced. Ohhh well i know im not getting one until they reveal real games for it and lower the price.

[D4RkNIKON]

"Kinect priced at GameStop: $149" that is about the price of a used wii, not to mention console sold separately. It will bomb harder than hiroshima

[BYE]

@Anarki

Complain fail, this News is about Kinect, not the 360...

[Mista T]

they should of said the price, that would've been the biggest fail!!!! bahahahaha

[Christopher]

And no software mentioned in the package? I seriously hope for Microsoft's sake that this isn't true.

[AAACE5]

They didn't even announce a price!

[RememberThe357]

I'm not saying that is the price but just because they have not announce the price doesn't mean that GameStop doesn't know it. It also makes sense that they didn't announce the price at the conference because I know that would not have gone over well.

[deadreckoning666]

And Microsoft has officially dug their grave! IMO its crap..not worth it at that price. I wouldn't even buy it for $100

[Mista T]

the kinect won't even have any good games, it's the sega 32x all over again

[Shaka2K6]

.

[Quadrix]

Unfortunately, Microsoft is so rich that failing to sell even ONE of these will be nothing more than a mosquito bite to them.

[Al Bundy]

MS still haven't released the price for Nat......err, Kinect at E3. What are they hiding?

[LordMarius]

waiting for Sony's Move price

[DoomeDx]

60 bucks. confirmed by i-forgot-who

[RememberThe357]

http://n4g.com/news/536886/...

According to Yahoo Currency Converter 60€EUR = 73.3676$USD

[DORMIN]

They already said the bundle is going to be under $100 and that comes with camera, controller, and game?

BTW This isn't the 'official' price. I don't see why MS didn't announce it at their conference, unless it was this horrendous.

[-Mezzo-]

Effing Rip-Off.

[Prcko]

Lame,expensive,stupid,and unnecessarily crap!!!
that's all what i can say about this big microsoft fail!

[Bumpmapping]

5 million Kinect sold my ass

[White-Sharingan]

Jesus Christ Microsoft, what the fuck?

[saint_john_paul_ii]

its still a rumor. but the thing is, thats what every retailer has priced it so far. so its probably real. they must have heard it in microsoft meetings..

even if its at $100, the thing is still not worth it. just look at the games for god's sake....

[Sunny_D]

This price just confirmed one thing. The Rise(E3 09) and Fall(E3 10) of Kinect.

[Omega Zues]

http://www.gamestop.com/Cat...

On gamestop as we speak!

[Somnipotent]

no thanks. come back when it's under a ben and we'll talk.

[BeaArthur]

That's about $100 more than I would be willing to pay.

[Colonel-Killzone]

That Price factor is ridiculous. Add 70 more dollars and you can buy yourself a nintendo wii my god. WTF is microsoft thinking ?

[Maikrobi]

who should buy this crap for 150 bucks?!?! wtf plus xbox 360 slim is is 449 bucks... no fk... way

[A change in the wind]

Things just keep getting uglier at the Xbox camp.

[Focker420]

Am I surprised?? Not at all.

[mookins]

...that will not be any less than $100.00.

[GeoramA]

Peripherals should not cost that much.

[N4BmpS]

I don't know if that's a good idea. And they obviously took Milo in the backyard and killed him, where's Milo? screw Waldo.

[Qui-Gon Jim]

These prices, if correct, are just like buying the stuff separately. You would think bundling would be a better value.

[DoomeDx]

"A bit of poo really." - Stuart Black

[Keltik82]

Serious Microsoft!?! How god damn stupid are you!? Not to mention it's not even worth it!

[Wikkid666]

Ok... buy 2 setting of move controllers... 60 bucks each. Up to $120 already... add the charging station... probably 20 or 30. so is $150 that out of range???

[AssassinHD]

Your logic is sound Wikkid, but for those people who are not interested in buying multiple controllers, Kinect still costs $149.99. For example, I game alone most of the time, or I play with friends online, so I really have no need to purchase multiple Move controllers. I may purchase 2 at the most, but I may not purchase them both at the same time.

[downwardspiral]

lol, and pachter said that it would be 50 bucks

[dizzleK]

this is true. i've worked at gamestop, they're actually really good at having prices/pre-orders available for newly announced things. i've never known them to make mistakes on stuff like this.

[kingme71]

There was mention in the after interview with GTTV from Aaron Greenburg that the existing 360's need an additional power supply for Kinect but the newer 360's can power it with no additional supply. Not sure how much additional cost this new supply will add.

[ForROME]

HORRRRIBLE price, 99 and lower or its a no go accessory bad move MS

[strickers]

Too expensive,if true?Could be MS preparing to surprise people with a lower price and everyone will be pleased and say how cheap it is.

[tiamat5]

Final nail in th coffin.

[jcgamer]

seriously, what are they thinking? If i were some non-gaming consumer, i would STILL see the FAIL...you're telling me that the GAMING MACHINE costs the same as the ADD ON? In the words of The Situation, get outta HEYAH!

lol :)

[ElementX]

Well for $99 you get a scale for the Wii........ just sayin.
