Microsoft has just announced that the Kinect will retail for $149.99, as retailers have been speculating for months now. For that price, consumers will get both the Kinect hardware and Kinect Adventures, which seems to be a series of games that showcase what the Kinect is capable of. While the source does not list an official release date, Amazon is listing a November release date. Most of the time, retailers are about right, give or take a month. The timing is certainly right for the holidays. Anybody who wants to dance around in front of their TVs should start saving up now, it seems.
