"The conventional wisdom is that Kinect was an albatross on Xbox One, making the system more expensive at launch and taking away resource power. But now, over a decade later, the Kinect-like Nex Playground has outsold Xbox hardware for November in the US, according to Circana. Nex Playground came in third for hardware units sold last month, outpacing Xbox Series X|S."
"The only saving grace is that Xbox raked in more dollar sales, as Nex Playground retails for $250 but has been on sale for $200 over the holiday season. Overall, video game hardware sales were pretty bleak, reaching a low not seen since November 1995. This might not be a total shock for those paying attention. Nex Playground actually outsold every PS5 and Xbox console bundle for a week last month in the US."
Nex Playground achieved third place in US hardware unit sales for November, outselling Xbox Series X|S while Xbox led in dollar sales due to higher price. The device retails at $250 and has been discounted to $200 during the holidays. Overall video game hardware sales reached a November low not seen since 1995. The cube-shaped Nex includes a camera for body tracking, five preinstalled games, and an optional Play Pass subscription priced at $49 for three months or $89 for a year. Circana noted the device's strong, family-oriented appeal during holiday gifting season.
