Kinect and Xbox One X

Dear Microsoft,

I just purchased an Xbox One X last week. This was my 4th Xbox One purchase since 2013. I still have my Kinect 2.0 from the first console I bought. Over the past several years the OS has been stripped of a great deal of Kinect features and now you are
discontinuing the device completely.

There are still games that are used by the Kinect almost exclusively. I have several of them and have no way of enjoying them on the beastly new console without shoveling out an additional $40-$60 on an adapter due to being an early
adopter/Kinect fan. Please do the right thing and provide free adapters to all Xbox One X/S owners. We invested in your vision from the very beginning and now we are being forced to pay additional money to enjoy features that were available from the start.

You owe this to us Microsoft. Please do the right thing.

Respectfully,



:)

 

Discontinued Kinect adapter means microsoft lies about compatability

You failed to include this little tidbit from that link -

If you plan to use a Kinect sensor with Xbox One X or Xbox One S, you'll need a Kinect Adapter. For details, see
How to use an Xbox One Kinect Sensor with Xbox One X or Xbox One S.

Or you can look at this -

Compatible with everything Xbox One

Xbox One X | Xbox

Xbox One accessories work with Xbox One X

The Xbox One accessories you’ve got now (or have got your eye on) work with Xbox One X *2

No hassle. Just play.

*2 - Excludes the Xbox One S stand that works exclusively with the Xbox One S.

Xbox Kinect Adapter (sold separately) required for Kinect on Xbox One S and Xbox One X.

I'm not finding where they lied here regarding the compatibility.

Dear Microsoft,

I also want to use the Kinect V2 on an XBOX ONE X.

Unfortunately, even at 40 €, the kinect adapter is out of order.

Impossible to get it.

Second-hand sales sites offer them at very high prices from € 100 to over € 300.

Microsoft, have you thought of those who want to join XBOX One to One X and who could not take advantage of the adapter cable given to One S buyers ?

Not Available for free, unavailable for 40 € anywhere..,

Is Microsoft promoting the sale of this adapter to the black market at shameful prices ?

Waiting for your answer...

 

I agree. My family had 2 regular Xbox Ones's last year and for Christmas my wife bought 3 Xbox One S's to replace them. I still have not been able to use my Kinect a year later because I don't have an adapter and after spending over $1000 dollars you would
think I would not have to buy an adapter . . . pretty cheap!
