It is not official, but you cannot argue when Microsoft's OWN online store has listed Kinect at $150. Makes our poll on the right there more relevant. I can see the achievements for Kinect games being super easy although at what price?...
News has also started to filter through that the actual unit costs $150 to manufacture which means Microsoft will make zippo if anyone buys the unit. Did they REALLY think this through? In a word. No. Michael Patcher, financial analyst, in a video below thinks the price needs to be right. Like no kidding, Sherlock.
I think it's good they put the units at the cost it takes to manufacture, cheaper for us and hopefully easy achievements :] and a lot of em'

£120+ at shopto. Doesn't come with a game. Its at cost but Microsoft cant have much faith in the product. Only way its going to get into more homes is to take a loss.
