Officially the console was announced as being in production back at Gamescom.

Unofficially it looks like they've been in production as early as June: http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20130611PD207.html

Yeah but do you have pictures to prove it.

 

[iceatcs]

Once full assemble kit packed, announce the date.

 

[teiresias]

Just think, the consoles in those boxes have all of that horrible DRM in it right now, and it won't be removed until the launch day patch.

 

[polyh3dron]

 

[Zok310]

Really?!

 

[Black Republican]

Wheres the FCC filing? i dont believe

 

[Pain]

So that's the first Xbone off assembly line? Seems way too late. When did the PS4 start production?

 

[JaggedSac]

Ew that box will NOT look appealing while shipping MS deff rushed this console just based on the cardboard (way too leightweight, probably cause a RCOD). Sticker looks like Ariel is there anything MS WON"T ruin with their own shitty standards? Probably sidewise because of the weight of the external powerbrick and needs its own pallet. Just one box? Probably entire EU shipment.

lol

 

[studyguy]

Can confirm, it's a box.
I work for a company that makes carton boxes.

 

[Dead Prince]

how many xbox one are in the brown box? looks like it holds one?

 

[Twin Tails]

 

[DietRob]

Welp that's it all 36 pre orders are taken care of. I'm joking of course. I assume they will go in some sort of retail sleeve. Can't just be a brown box sitting on the shelf at walmart. lol

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Dat orange sticker. Feels so real.

 

[Ubiquitar]

I'd love to see the whole process from start to finish how they manufacture these things! I bet there's relief at MS today.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

But I thought their unboxing video proved that they already have full retail boxes ready to go?! Nice landmark image, tho

That... Was never the purpose if the Unboxing video. Major Nelson said so himself, the video is just to show you how the system would be packed and what is included when you obtain your system in November. :/

Anyways, good to see production is going fine for them, wonder how long it takes to ship, a month is my guess? Full month of production and one month to ship?

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Dat orange sticker. Feels so real.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

So wait, these things are actually being shipped now?

 

[iceatcs]

Yeah but do you have pictures to prove it.

OP pics are not enough, you need to show what is in the box.

 

[lupinko]

It's a box!

But what is inside the box?

 

[Bsigg12]

54 consoles per pallet if each box has 2 consoles in it. The pallet holds a 3x3x3 box configuration, so 27 boxes per pallet. I wonder how long until we start seeing these in the backrooms of Walmarts and Targets.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

It's hard to get a feel of how big that outer box is. Looks like it probably only holds two or three consoles.

 

[polyh3dron]

So wait, these things are actually being shipped now?

yep mine gets delivered 2 days from now

Welp that's it all 36 pre orders are taken care of. I'm joking of course. I assume they will go in some sort of retail sleeve. Can't just be a brown box sitting on the shelf at walmart. lol

Lol those aren't the system boxes. There is probably two systems in those cases.

 

[DietRob]

But what is inside the box?

An Xbone. Doesn't the title make is clear for you?

Lol those aren't the system boxes. There is probably two systems in those cases.

But the Xbox is huge.

I wonder how long til we see these in the WILD

 

[TheLegendary]

Knowing Microsoft, I'm sure that image went through months of red tape before he was approved in order to post it.

Being slightly facetious, but I'm sure that wasn't literally taken today.

 

[JerC]

7 minutes from the first one off the line to them all on pallets, wrapped and loaded onto the truck? That's efficiency for you. They'll have more of these than 360's LTD by Christmas.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

But what is inside the box?

Someone needs to bust that shit open and see if a pack-in sticker is on the box, dammit.

 

[Black Republican]

Orange Sticker = Orange Box = Half life 3 Xbox One Tier 2 EU launch title confirmed

 

[PhatSaqs]

I think we should start the unit count prediction for launch thread. I'm gonna call
500K for launch total.

 

[CambriaRising]

It's hard to get a feel of how big that outer box is. Looks like it probably only holds two or three consoles.

If they are using standard size packing tape and pallets, it looks to me like it could be 3 per case easily. I don't think any more than that, and the box looks too big for only 2.


That is assuming they aren't using tons of packing materials inside.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

I don't think you understand the context of that gif...

I wonder how long til we see these in the WILD

Can't wait for the shaky cam footage of those pallets disappearing quickly behind the shrubbery. Next gen is here, get hyped.

 

[cRIPticon]

So those are the shipping boxes for the power bricks? amirite? Wonder how big the shipping boxes for the console will be? JJJUUUSSSTTTT KIDDING! Sheesh!

 

[Ushae]

Hype!

 

[chubigans]

The idea of a PS4 and XB1 just sitting in a warehouse right now is DRIVIN ME NUTS

 

[SEGAvangelist]

yep mine gets delivered 2 days from now

Shipped to warehouses of course... of course I know the launch date.

 

[RedRooster]

Hahaha, now that's funny.
The rest of these amateurs in this thread could take lessons on humor. So, so bad.

 

[Twin Tails]

I don't think you understand the context of that gif...

Yeah, it's a dumb rap battle. I just like the loop and fake excitement.

All of them are in the Black retail box, you don't just ship systems in it's retail packaging unless you want it stolen. The cardboard box protects the packaging inside as well as covers what's actually being shipped.

 

[Red Chocobo]

Foxconn looks like a fun place to work.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Yeah, it's a dumb rap battle. I just like the loop and fake excitement.

Ahh ok then. I just feel like that's one of the best gifs ever. Can't use for everything! Gotta save it!

Lets do this.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

When did Sony start production?

 

[ak1976]

I love seeing this type of stuff. Curious that we haven't seen any ps4's in assembly (unless I haven't search functioned yet)..

 

[SEGAvangelist]

When did Sony start production?

No one knows for sure.

 

[shandy706]

Haha, I can echo that.

They're physically already there and capable of playing games.....just sitting there....



....head explodes.
