    They ship these preordered units out to us on Nov. 10th? Or we get them sometime around the 10th?

    I’ll be amazed if it’s at my door right on the 10th. I’ve never preordered like this before so I’m really interested to see how this plays out.

    They strike a tough balance, they really don’t want consoles showing up early so that outcome is very rare. I think they might actually instruct the shippers not to drop until release date.

    That said, shit happens and sometimes they aren’t there day one. I remember my Scorpio came a fair bit later at night than I would have preferred and it stressed me out.

    Vast vast majority show up on the day they want them to.

    With increasing # covid cases, maybe new lockdown restrictions, Christmas, a new console launch and then parts shortages which all manufacturers are dealing with one could argue the consoles will be the big toy of the season.

    Every year theres one or two items everyone wants that they can't get. I'm thinking theres a perfect storm that makes consoles that item this year. Who knows maybe I'm wrong.. guess we will see in a couple months.
    Microsoft says there's no stock refill for pre-orders until launch day. After Sony's shitshow of a pre-order, they promise another allocation of pre-orders, but seems like there will be no more stock after that till March 2021.

    So I think you're right in that this will be a pretty tight supply vs demand for these consoles. Scalpers rejoice, just don't get robbed on kijiji.

    Had a buddy win 10 or so xbox or playstations on ebay auctions. Proceeded to renege on everyone due to the preorder rule that the unit must ship in 30 days. Even managed to get a few sellers to send him the order confirmation before hand so he could cancel their preorders..

    This thread has made me realize there are way more scumbags around than I thought.

    I wanna get the S, but I've been slowly upgrading the entire house to 4K HDR in the last 3 years that I feel like I'm cheapening out on the last piece, even if it's for the kids TV haha.

    Have 3 rooms to upgrade so that's expensive too.

    For my main tv i definitely want the X but if I had a reason to go downtown I would probably swap out my office OG xbox for an S. Need the supersampling in 1080p for my old eyes and pixel peeks.

    So will the S do 4K at all?

    It’s got to be faster than a one x?

    The hardware specs seem to favour the Xbox over the PS. But which is best in real life?

    The one your friends are on is the only correct choice.

    I’ll trade you an S + cash for the X if I’m reading everything right!

    Is there a reason these companies can’t keep up to demand? Switch was hard to buy, now Xbox and PS?
