A:AnswerAccording to Best Buy: "We do our best with every pre-order to ensure it’s delivered as close to release as possible by shipping it out at a level of service needed for it to get to you on release day. Depending on a number of factors, such as your proximity to one of our stores or distribution centers, pre-orders often ship out for different people at different times."
A:AnswerThere is no next step. I had mine in cart and clicking checkout I got an error message saying it was out of stock. It was out of stock in like 5 seconds. So frustrated to be so close and then get told it was sold out. Bestbuy isn't doing anything to prevent bots. Need to start back up with in store purchasing.
A:AnswerMike,
To answer this question fairly it simply comes down to the fact that Best Buy and Microsoft DO NOT CARE.... What they want is all the money they can make by emptying their inventories as soon as they receive them regardless of who is buying and how many they are buying....
A:AnswerYou got one.
Be happy.
The demand is big.
I think it’s a great idea only one per account.
Do you really need multiples?
Many people trying to get this for someone for Xmas.
A:AnswerThe system was messed up all day, I tried from 11am till 10:15pm. 7 times I got one and was checking out when the message oops sorry, something went wrong. Hundreds of times it said added to cart and it was not.
Remember circuit city? Nope. No one will remember best buy either. Disgraceful way to do business.
A:AnswerFrom what I can tell, they usually restock these on Friday but I could be absolutely wrong. I signed up for notifications from Best Buy to get email when they’re restocked but it’s also best to find a few people on Twitter that usually have all of the restocking info due to them calling warehouses and seeing. One guy that has helped over 13k ppl receive their console is named MattSwider on Twitter. Go follow him and turn on the bell for his post notifications so you can be the first in Line to purchase one. But anyways, I hope this info helped some and good luck to you and everyone else trying their best to purchase one of the new consoles.
Another tip is to have your Best Buy account fully set up with all of your info along with your payment methods on file so when they’re restocked, all you have to do is sign-in and add to cart as quickly as possible cause these things sell out within the first minute. That’s how I was able to purchase mine and it worked
A:AnswerYes, Xbox Series X is compatible with hundreds of Xbox 360 and original Xbox games, though not all. For questions about Best Buy reward points, we recommend contacting Best Buy customer support directly.
A:AnswerYes you got scammed. Employees didn't tell you the membership doesn't guarantee you a console. Request a refund, because you gave them $200 for nothing.
A:AnswerI believe soon . Just be patient and vigilant . Sony and Microsoft are large wealthy companies . They know there fanbase . Sony has promised that they will have more consoles released before the end of the year and Phil Spencer ( the head of Microsoft gaming division ) says that they are internally discussing how they can get the Xbox series X/S to their customers by defeating the scalpers who use bots . DON’T GIVE IN TO THE SCALPERS !
A:AnswerHonest answer, it's probably best for you to wait until 2021 to purchase a Series X/S. Obviously due to COVID-19 production rates are low. Microsoft alongside Sony are gonna slowly roll out small waves of stock throughout the remainder of the year, which will more than likely be bought out by scalpers because of the high demand of the holiday season. It's the sad reality for now. You either get really lucky and you put in work tryna get a pre order online, buy one from a scalper, or simply miss out until more consoles are readily available.
A:AnswerIt sure is! In fact, it’s backwards compatible with all 4 (some would argue there’s 5 with the Xbox One S and X) generations of Xbox. Not every title from past generations are available, but those that are look and play just as good as they did originally at the very least. The best part though is that a lot of these older games look and play better than they ever did on their original hardware through backwards compatibility. I recommend checking out the Xbox website and searching up “Backwards compatibility” to find a list of all presently backwards compatible games. They try to add more whenever they can, too. Have fun!
