They reckon it’ll secure an attachment rate of 56 percent two years after its launch, and earn them ”$2.3 billion in its 2012 fiscal” - holy flurking shnit!
That’s what crystal ball readers say anyway. ”The analysts make a series of assumptions — including an $85 retail price for the camera-based system — and estimate that Natal will boost Microsoft’s revenue by $1.7 billion in its 2011 fiscal year (which begins in July 2010) and $2.3 billion in its 2012 fiscal year…” reports Gamer Investments.
”The Goldman Sachs analysts obviously believe consumer demand for the motion-sensitive Project Natal device will be big. In a note to clients, they say they expect Natal to reach a 56 percent “attach rate” less than two years after its launch…”
You say Nintendo snubbed the Natal technology? If this is true then Microsoft will be sitting extremely pretty, free to rub sceptic noses in it. Can this be true? Can Project Natal really earn them 1.7 billion in revenue for next fiscal? It sounds… a bit farfetched.
