Yeah, the 7th and 8th in line were forced to.

How long should I wait before cancelling a redundant order?
I don't want to get a delayed or cancel notice after dropping one but, I feel bad that some did not get one
I canceled my Wal-Mart. I have Amazon and Best Buy (in-store).
I'll cancel the Amazon in a week or so if everything still looks good with Best Buy.
I'll wait until the first week of November. There's no reason to cancel them immediately.
Still can't believe I pulled this off.
Got both consoles, both models that I wanted, from the retailer I wanted to get them from, both for in-store pickup (hopefully midnight launches).
CAN'T FUCKING WAIT!
That's what I was thinking, but then I was trying to think back to next year and remember if there were incremental "stealth drops" on the lead-up to launch.I have a hunch that they will be adding more preorder drops as we get closer.
A compaby will always take guaranteed sales.
Yeah it's funky.So has Amazon just said "fuck it" with Series S pre-orders? They've never gone live. Haven't seen anyone on here say they got a S or on Twitter.
Not yet. A regular external HDD will be good for cold storage for Series S/X games and to play backwards compatible games from. It's not a bad option until SSD prices come down a bit.
Friends told me not to get the series X because I did not have a tv to support it.
Thanks bestbuy

It was letting military personnel/vets know the XSS/X were up on the military store.
Amazon germany has them still available for pre orderSo has Amazon just said "fuck it" with Series S pre-orders? They've never gone live. Haven't seen anyone on here say they got a S or on Twitter.
I haven't been in the market for a new TV in a while. Do you think we'll see deals that good during black friday?
I'd maybe call them once things settle down. You'd hate to mess something up on the order.Can I change my shipping address at a later time with the Microsoft store? I'll be moving between now and launch day. I can't seem to find a way to update my shipping information.
How did the in-store GameStop pre-orders work for the group here?
As far as we know amazon never went live with the Xbox Series S in the US.So has Amazon just said "fuck it" with Series S pre-orders? They've never gone live. Haven't seen anyone on here say they got a S or on Twitter.
I was thinking this might be the best solution. I'm definitely waiting a week though 😂I'd maybe call them once things settle down. You'd hate to mess something up on the order.
First Gamestop I went to had a sign up on stating there were 6 Series X and 2 Series S pre-orders available. Arrived shortly after 10am and there were over a dozen people in line. Didn't stay.
Second Gamestop, no sign on the door, but there were just 9 people out front so I decided to get in line. A dude who'd been waiting since 8am, said they had 7-8 X's and 4 S's. If a couple of people go S, I might be ok, so I wait. After a few minutes the clerk comes out with 7 game sheets in his hand, asking who is getting the X. The first 7 people in line all raise their hand a get a sheet. He confirms there are enough S's for the three of us remaining....I didn't stay.
I did learn at GS #2 that GS#1 was doing a waiting list of some sort for extra stock, which explains why more people than there were Xbox's were waiting.
Oof - sorry to hear that. The "wait list" thing probably did not affect the number of people in line and honestly should not have affected your decision to bail; good on you for seeking a system elsewhere. Did you happen to find one online?
Or any order/preorder anywhere on a highly sought itemNEVER TRY TO CHANGE A BEST BUY ORDER ON SOMETHING THAT IS SOLD OUT.
Best Buy Pre-Ordering 101.
As of now, its been T-Minus 9 hours since pre-orders started, and my guess around 7 since the page went live, but orders never did. Around the time Best Buy started, I kinda just said "f it" and bought it from Best Buy. It still is baffling to me why they never went live seeing it was everywhere else, hell Amazon sites in other countries were fine. I want to guess that either Amazon may have not been allotted much of them for the US (especially after seeing after Major Nelson's tweet citing most orders have been filled), or that scalpers got a hold of the direct link and got them all before we even saw it go live (kinda like the PS5). Either way, imo this kinda falls more on Amazon's front that MS, but we won't know for sure.So has Amazon just said "fuck it" with Series S pre-orders? They've never gone live. Haven't seen anyone on here say they got a S or on Twitter.
Is it insane just to buy a Series X just for Gamepass? I have a PC but it seems Gamepass for PC do not have all the titles. A recent notable one was RDR2
No, that's why I bought one. I'm probably going to be one if the worst Ms customers for a couple years. They sell a console to me for a loss and then I don't have to buy any games for a couple years.Is it insane just to buy a Series X just for Gamepass?

CorrectSo if you want high speed ssd on X we need the official memory card right?
at this point i barely need to buy games on xbox. I have game pass, games with gold, ea access. And most of the stuff i play is free anyway (apex legends/fortnite/cod warzone/destiny 2)No, that's why I bought one. I'm probably going to be one if the worst Ms customers for a couple years. They sell a console to me for a loss and then I don't have to buy any games for a couple years.
I'll probably dabble in some bc 360 titles because that's the most appealing part of series x to me outside gamepass. Play older games with improved frame rate and resolution. Even hdr features.
Nope, that's what I did too.Is it insane just to buy a Series X just for Gamepass? I have a PC but it seems Gamepass for PC do not have all the titles. A recent notable one was RDR2
I placed mine well after the initial offering and haven't received a cancellation notice, be positive!Looks like I got a Series S preorder for Best Buy to finally go through. I don't trust it though lol.

All the existing Xbox One titles on Gamepass (not bought) will be playable on Series X day 1?
Feeling better about my preorder now .. lol
