Thanks. Just ordered mine there, I guess I'll set a calendar notification in November to remind me to have the money in my checking account lol.

Bought via Very.co.uk and got money off too! Very excited to see what Xbox One X is all about come November.

Oh shit forgot about Target, I got a red card so 5% off is nice... 🤔
They posted on facebok saying you can trade in your old one between 11/7-11/19 and save up to $200. Probably not getting much for my 1tb og one.

Oh ok, that's odd.
Guess we'll have to be patient. But if it's true that the only preorders right now are the Scorpio Edtion you'd think that preorders made at big stores like Mediamarkt and so on should be fine. But just to be sure i'm gonna go there tomorrow.
I'd rather buy it at a store in my town, because i really want to be able to just go to the store right away on November 7 as soon as i wake up and not have to wait patiently (impatiently) for the delivery guy to arrive.
I ordered mine from Walmart.ca because someone said Best Buy was sold out, but Best Buy Canada has the link up for now and appears to have stock.

Scorpio edition differences are: green lettering and textured top on the console right?

Did we already know One X has 8GB Flash storage on top of the 1TB and 12GB RAM?
I just got an email saying as much.

Seems like the best plan right now. I love the fact Amazon does not charge until shipped, so we can always wait and see elsewhere. That is a win win for us.
I can live with the branding if need be but I have no intention of using the vertical stand, so if I could get it sans branding, that is preferred.
Really not sure why MS insists on doing the branding that they do. I get some people may be into it, to each their own, but I am not. It just makes it tacky to be honest. Again, I get why some may be into it, but if there has to be branding, make it a small logo and call it a day. Not some green letters that read Project Scorpio.
It truly is not the end of the world if this is the console I wind up with. Want to reiterate this fact. I just prefer clean and minimal.
Isn't that better?

I think it also comes with the stand if you care to stand it vertical, but I could be wrong.

I guess us Canadians are out of luck here? Can't even use the American amazon website anymore because they stopped shipping to Canada recently.
Media Markt in Germany still accepts pre-orders: http://www.mediamarkt.de/de/product...corpio-edition-xbox-one-konsolen-2143646.html

I haven't seen any links. Apparently you have to check with your local store on TIV.

Do you know if they take payment now or at release? Might do this instead.

Same price though right? I could care less about Scorpio edition but wanted to make sure I got one.

Gonna wait myself for Nedgame or something. Need to trade in my OG also.

Just watch the unboxing video. Yeah it does come with stand!
But it's not really textured, it's a graphic resembling texture. It's not like the S real texturing at all.
meh

Same price but the normal ones don't come with the stand while the Scorpio editions do.

Just ordered on .ca and it clearly states on checkout that they will charge only once it ships

Preordered through Best Buy and Amazon. That way I figure I'm safe.
They showed one of those custom Xbox One controllers that was a limited run specifically made for Gamescom '17, but other than that I don't think these consoles are numbered.

Just preordered at gamestop. They were allocated 10. $100 min deposit.
I was #1.

Scorpio Edition ordered from Best Buy! Got it for $258 given the laptops I turned in a couple of months ago during their offer on taking anything. Thanks, GAF, for the pointer on that!
Hmm, right. Gotta get rid of this 'ol thing when the time comes.

It looks off-centered too. Ick.
Still looks better than what we had for the day one edition of the original Xbox one that truly was ugly as fuck

Hopefully this is not gonna cause problems for other stores getting enough X consoles. Not even necessarily only the Scorpio Edition, but man..if they are already selling out.....
