Things certainly seem to be going well for the Xbox One X, but how do its pre-orders stack up against past Xbox models? Well, according to Microsoft, the Xbox One X is the company’s fastest-selling pre-order ever. Not bad! Here’s what GameStop had to say about Xbox One X:
“Microsoft has done it again! The innovation and power behind the new Xbox One X console is driving excitement and demand among our customers worldwide. The speed at which we sold through our initial pre-order supply surpassed expectations, and what we experienced with pre-orders for the original Xbox One console. This new system is definitely going to change how video games are played!”
Did you miss out on pre-ordering an Xbox One X this week? Don’t worry – only the limited Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition was offered this week. Microsoft is promising there will be another chance to claim a standard model Xbox One X before launch.
There’s been a lot of skepticism about the Xbox One X, particularly after it lost its biggest launch title, but it seems there was some pent-up hunger for the machine. Maybe there’s only a small niche who are interested in the system, and sales will drop off quickly after launch, but, for now, the console looks like a success.
The Xbox One X hits shelves (for probably a very limited time) on November 7. You can check out WWG’s latest Xbox One coverage here.
