Xbox Executive Acknowledges Xbox One X Pre-orders Frustration
Speaking on YouTube, Xbox’s Mike Ybarra acknowledged the frustration players are having with the inability to place pre-orders, reiterating Phil Spencer’s previously stated stance of pre-orders being available ‘soon’.
“It’s great to see the excitement from people. I know there’s frustration about pre-orders, [and I] apologize for that. As Phil [Spencer] said on Twitter, he said soon and really that’s all I can say about that,” Ybarra said in a new video.
In this case, the matter is entirely out of Microsoft’s hands- Microsoft wanted pre-orders for the system to be available as early as E3, but the hold-up is no longer on their end. Hopefully, this is something the FCC resolves soon- it would be a matter of mild panic, for instance, if we headed into October, and there was still no clearance from them- you can’t sell electronics in US and Canada unless the FCC has cleared them, after all.

They're gonna get a hell of a lot of preorders. Hope they can keep up with the initial demand and without any faults.

You guys think they'll do preorders for bundles with the tv? last I heard it was assumptions so idk if they had guaranteed that yet

I heard it was already approved by the FCC, so Ybarra is probably right about "soon".

Gotta admit, I'm not concerned about pre ordering, I can't afford that. I'll have to wait until maybe Christmas or sometime next year.

The console is dropping preorders on Sunday. 99.9% sure. FCC has already approved the console.
