http://www.redmondpie.com/microsoft-...et-in-history/Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect sales has surprised the world of gaming, with the latest figures suggesting the sales rates of the Kinect have now surpassed that of the Apple iPad and Nintendo Wii console. Microsoft’s goal for the end of the year is 5 million units, after selling 2.5 million units in 25 days we would say they are well on there way.
In comparison, the Apple iPad took 90 days to sell 4.5 million units, a very impressive figure especially in the current economic climate but Microsoft has sold over 2.5 million units in 25 days, meaning if it keeps its pace, it will take less than two months to reach that figure. Kinect units are selling at a rate of 100,000 units per day versus 50,000 per day for iPads. Other official stats from the Microsoft press release show that the Kinect has sold twice as fast as the Sony PlayStation Move, which sold just 1 million sales in its first month.
