Spoiler

In before "who cares"

 

[Raide]

Already got a Scorpio edition on order but I can see why some people might wait for regular edition. Not long now!

 

[Rourkey]

I’ve switched mine over, hacking a day one edition Xbox one always bugged me, everyone knows how old the console is for a start

 

[PaulLFC]

Got my preorder in with Amazon. Unsure if I'll keep it yet with the £450 cost, but I probably will.

 

[sphinx]

not buying BUT...

I think MS should really put a display in stores with the best most modern TV and the best looking, most demanding game running on it.

if it's as powerful as they say, that can make the difference.

Spoiler

between it being a total disaster and a solid-if-not-spectacular result

 

[Balboa]

I really want to switch to standard but isn't it true that only the SCORPIO edition comes with the vertical stand? The stand is essential for me and I don't see them selling it seperately.

It's being sold separately.

What is that game for the X, in your opinion? Forza? Tomb Raider? Halo?

You can buy it separately I do believe

It's 15 quid

 

[TerryLee81]

What's the difference besides the "Scorpio Edition" text on the console?

 

[Defect]

What's the difference besides the "Scorpio Edition" text on the console?

I think the Scorpio console has some sort of texture

 

[Crow Pudding]

I will wait for some replace plan to change my old one for the X.
I hope in game.es I can save something close to 100€. It worked for the switch...

 

[dead monkey uk]

Yeah and a Scorpio text on the controller

 

[singhr1]

What's the difference besides the "Scorpio Edition" text on the console?

There is a White -> Black gradient on the console.

Also Scorpio Edition text on the controller.

 

[Impulsor]

I think the Scorpio console has some sort of texture

Not texture but kinda a fade from gray to black, from the right side to the left side if you are looking at it from the front and it is sitting horizontally.

It also has project scorpio written in green on the console right above the disc slot or something.

and on the pad.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

No renove plan, no party, MS.

I already have a 2TB One S to play my UHD BRs.

 

[ClivePwned]

Preordered a standard this morning. I looked at Game's bundles and the only one that sorta interested me (as in no Forza) was the one with AC: Origins but that looked like you saved about 3 pounds off standard (I suppose 3 months live makes it a bit better value) but in the end I just went with Amazon since they deliver to my office and I'm sure AC will be available for less than 30 by the time I jave a chance to play it after Christmas.

Now I just need a decent 4K TV in those Black Friday sales

 

[MilkyJoe]

Fuck GAME as usual.

 

[Podge293]

Fuck GAME as usual.

What did they do this time?

 

[hanspampel]

Haha lol

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Assassin's Creed duh

 

[VE3TRO]

Have the Scorpio Edition on pre-order from VERY and decided to get a normal as well both for £360. Probably cancel the Scorpio though.

 

[Izuna]

I got an email for it and realised I really don't want this this year.

I mean, what the fuck is with that price. It just hit me how insane it is.

 

[Tall Paul]

Thanks for that mate much appreciated, just put one through, not showing in orders yet but hopefully all will be ok, great saving!

The price was announced months ago and who pre-orders something and doesn't look at the price?

Edit:. You didn't pre-order it. Sorry, read it wrong, but the price wasn't a secret.

 

[borges]

Price was not a secret. Do you really need to receive a preorder mail to realize that?

 

[hanspampel]

Xbox is still strong in the UK

 

[Guerrilla]

Xbox is still strong in the UK

Wait, is this year to date?

 

[Shiggy]

Wait, is this year to date?

What a question 😂
Of course not.

 

[hanspampel]

Wait, is this year to date?

no. it's the hourly chart
it's an algorithm backed best-seller list. so not even purely POS based.

France for example has the Xbox One X at #3 and no PS edition charted
Italy has the Xbox One X PS edition at #10 and regular X at #19
Germany is not updated yet...

 

[Izuna]

I guess I'm waiting for trade-in deals to be announced.

 

[Footos22]

Every new console goes to no.1 in the hourly chart lol

 

[MilkyJoe]

What did they do this time?

Bundle that includes a fucking 2 month NOW TV pass. The usual unrelated crap.

 

[Colbert]

May I ask why we needed a new thread? There is this huge pre-order thread already!

 

[Guerrilla]

What a question ��
Of course not.

I thought so, but how is the project scorpio edition on there then?

 

[Theorry]

Ordered a normal edition today at my local gameshop indeed.

 

[VE3TRO]

Thanks for that mate much appreciated, just put one through, not showing in orders yet but hopefully all will be ok, great saving!

Should be fine. I got the same deal with the Project Scorpio edition back when orders were open and had no problem.

 

[airborn]

Ah ok so looking at the product is pushing it up the list then?

 

[AbandonedTrolley]

Just got a 10% discount code for Argos after a cancelled order, tempted to use on this and get down to about £405

 

[Shiggy]

I thought so, but how is the project scorpio edition on there then?

It was also available (probably as others cancelled their order).

 

[DarKshodaN]

Xbox is still strong in the UK

Not even in the Top 100 in Germany lol

 

[nekkid]

Is that through their 20% off your first credit offer?

It states that it's 10% for electrical...

 

[Shiggy]

Not even in the Top 100 in Germany lol

Looks like stock really is limited as it's sold out on Amazon.de now. With Xbox One in Germany it's typically more a demand issue than a supply issue.

 

[JetSetRadio]

Might grab one when RDR2 drops if it's a vast improvement compared to the pro version.

 

[cakely]

Wait, is this year to date?

God no, it's the hourly.

 

[hanspampel]

Not even in the Top 100 in Germany lol

and the funniest part about it
it's sold out in Germany on Amazon (as the only region right now)

maybe very limited supply for Amazon.de

The Scorpio Edition didn't even make it into the top 100 where even the NES Mini is (and that barely got any shipments this year). The Xbox One simply isn't very big in Germany. For years, its main competitor was the Wii U. And the Xbox One only reached that system's sales once it was discontinued.

So it makes perfect sense to focus on NA and the UK when it comes to stock availability.

Also, MediaSaturn naturally get a larger stock allocation than Amazon.de.

i know
but the German Xbox One market is at least close to the size of France

so that makes me wonder, why Amazon.de the only outsold retailer across Europe right now (at least that we're aware off)

 

[flozuki]

Just a reminder that - if you order in the MS Store - you can also use Xbox balance (Xbox cards) to pay ;-)
