Amazon sells out of PS4, Xbox One launch day stock

4.7
Amazon and Best Buy are the latest retailers to tell consumers they've run out of their initial PS4 and/or Xbox One allocations.

Earlier this week, GameStop said it's currently not accepting any more PS4 pre-orders online or in stores, and now other major retailers have said their launch allocations of next-gen consoles have run dry.

"After a crazy and exciting month, we've sold through our initial allocations of PS4 and Xbox One," Amazon said on Facebook.

"We have the Standard Editions for both consoles still available, but we can't guarantee these at release. Please check back here as we'll update you first if we receive further release day allocations."

Meanwhile, US retailer Best Buy has stopped taking Xbox One pre-orders.

Microsoft has confirmed that Xbox One will be available in 21 markets this November. The Xbox One price has been set at £425 / €499 / $499.

Sony showed off the PS4 hardware for the first time during its E3 conference, when it confirmed a Christmas PS4 release date in Europe and the US and a PS4 price of £349 / €399 / $399.

HoytVolker yh xbox is tons better...


It really isn't, if you're going to start a war at least give your justifications.


stating my opinion, if you feel like im trying to stir trouble, then im sorry.


What makes your opinion better about the xbox. Or do we have another XBOX Fanboy... Judge them as if youve never have any of the other consoles so your not biased to either of them

This has nothing to do with the sales. Just because PS4 sold out doesn't mean people are then just going to buy the Xbox One.

slamjam1 I love how the only reason why Xbox One is still in stock is because its such a crap console compared to the PS4.


That's an extremely bias statement. Both consoles are fairly close in specs but if you want a cheaper console the PS4 is obviously the better choice. The Xbox is just as good as the PS4 and how can you even tell that one console is so much better than the other if you have yet to even touch, look, or even play either of them.
