MS did say that they expect units to be restricted until middle of 2021. It reinforces the story about Sony going pretty strong on supply in the launch period. The rumor was to 11 million units available through the quarter into the end of the first fiscal year (which ends in April). We’ll see if they hit those targets. The PS4 by comparison sold 7 million in that timeframe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MS did say that they expect units to be restricted until middle of 2021. I'm hoping it's not quite that long. They've been saying shortages up until April so hopefully that holds and I can still jump on one around Feb/March time. Fair chance demand will lessen across Europe sooner than it might in North America due to the stranglehold Playstation has on the market here. We'll see. Would be nice if Amazon would at least give me the opportunity to register for an alert when it comes back in stock. Perhaps they will in the weeks ahead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They were doing this thing where you had to click Add to Cart, and then the button would change to Please Wait... After about 20 minutes, the button went back to Add to Cart and then I could complete the order. It was odd, but WAY better than my futile attempts on Walmart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had no idea how easy this was. The best part is how easy it seems to be to switch between dev and normal mode. JoeyN 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeyN 1,230 Posted Tuesday at 11:54 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 11:54 PM Down the road, a series S may be added as an emulation box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisBardon 426 Posted yesterday at 01:51 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 01:51 AM That's pretty cool-given that fact that it's not really getting direct HW access, I don't think the X would give much of a benefit over the S. Shame it's all UWP though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
