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.

Pre-orders have taken off heavily now! Can't see why people are complaining on when you can pre-order it. Even if you pre-order it a few weeks before release, what does it matter?

It's slowly closing in on release date, if they leave it much longer they're going to have a ton of work to-do with pre-order's, they need to roll out soon
