According to a trusted source, Microsoft’s Project Natal will have a standalone price of $149, with an Xbox 360 Arcade bundle featuring the motion sensing camera retailing for $299.
The price is higher than some original estimates that put Natal at below $100 for launch. The device is expected to release October 26 (though that time may shift a few weeks) and the name Natal will apparently be changed at E3.
Microsoft expects to sell millions and millions of Natal units in its first year on the market so you can expect the software launch line-up to target non-traditional gamers, said the source. A major marketing campaign will also play a key role in attracting and educating the expanded audience about Xbox 360 s controller-free revolution.
