Significant shipments of Rage 3D and NASCAR PRO arrive [Wed/Thu] at CompUSA (NYSE:CPU).
Costco seems to be in bed with Microsoft. TMSR is currently out of Costco and MSFT is in [solely] with pallets of SideWinder Precision Pro and Force-Feedback Pro.
Costco is making a big mistake not aligning with TMSR, in our opinion. TMSR is literally smoking the competition [except above 2 MSFT products] in Brand recognition, depth of product line(s), and inventory turnover ref/ Rage 3D, NASCAR Pro, T2, Grand Prix I, Millennium Inceptor (gaining strongly), and Top Gun. TMSR simply has the best products in every category per industry reviews. Gravis, Logitech and CH appear to have lost significant share to TMSR and MSFT and the DirectConnect may just take out the reigning king of gamepads, Gravis' GamePad, GamePad Pro/EASports, Gravis GrIP (competing with TMSRs DirectConnect and USB). Perhaps? TMSR should align with (NYSE:CD)s Front Page Sports division re: Rage3D bundle ala Gravis/EA Sports? re: increasing market share, Brand equity... |
