I'm sorry, where did you get the info about three-lensed camera?

And why don't you mention multi-array microphone and depth sensor?

Are they really so cheap?

Anyway, don't you think Natal seems to be to revolutionary to sell it at a price of a simple cheap accessory? )

Best regards,

Pacther makes sound and rational predictions... but a $50 Natal? seriously. I do agree though with everything else he said, especially the acquisitions/mergers part.

Telling people that because a product's a camera, Microsoft's price will reflect industry standards...Is kinda like saying a 512 MB MU only should cost $5

Oh wait...Doesn't Microsoft's 512 MU cost $40? Thought so.

What a ridiculous conclusion on one of the industry's leaders in price-gouging on accessories.

Sony's motion wand is a grad school CS project they trotted out just to have something to compete with Natal. It was obviously not ready for prime time. I'll be surprised if it is actually released in Spring 2010.

"There is very little overlap between Walmart customers and GameStop customers."

Actually there is tons of overlap because 95% of America shops at Walmart. The only people who don't shop at Walmart are anti-consumerism types, and gamers are super-consumers who eat up everything the market throws at them.

That new Natal technology, even at a commercial level, ain't cheap. I'd be shocked myself if Microsoft actually offered it for less than $150. As well, I wouldn't expect to pick it up on launch day because there will not be a long list of games to support the new tech, at least for a year, I think (probably 2 or 3 titles at the most in order to promote it).

Furthermore I don't expect many developers to discover all its potential and nuances in terms of gameplay experience for at least a year or two after it hits market.
