Microsoft Japan's mobile Kinect demo trailer is bigger than most apartments
Will this mobile funb🥀ox sell more Kinects or just send visitors house hunting?
Kinect is doing terribly in Japan, but that's not stopping 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft from trying. The co🤡mpany’s latest gambit, a mobile Kinect demo space housed in a trailer, can be found in Yurakucho, a neighborhood just a few stops down from Tokyo's video game para꧟dise, Akihabara.

The trailer is one of nine that make up the “Kinect Demo Ca🌱ravan Car Event,” as Microsoft is caꦦlling it. Passersby can step inside to try out the various Kinect games, and when they leave, they can imagine what it's like to have a house with enough space to support the motion control device.

Judging by the pictures, the🍎 event isn't bringing in that many people, which is a shame, because Microsoft is using the response generated in Yurakucho and one other location to decide whether to take this show on the road in order to showcase 🌸Kinect to the rest of Japan.

Our advice? ꦿMicrosoft is going to need to either adjust Kinect so you can play while standing only three feet away, buy everyone in Japan a larger apartment, or start lobbying Square Enix for some kind of motion-controlled Dragon Quest game.
