The Kinect was released in November 2010. Are you suggesting they’re still running it?

My understanding is it died ~six months after the Xbox one released (early 2014) when they stopped bundling it with that console. They kept selling it for several years after, but it was inconceivable it would do anything but die at that point.

I mean, it was a better gimmick than the Wii, but it turns out the Wii was good enough.

People didn't want to pay a premium price for a motion gimmick. The Wii hit the sweet spot for casual gamers and they didn't care that the fidelity was lousy.
