Xbox One X Sells out “As Soon as they Hit the Shelves” - GameStop

3.7
Popular retailer GameStop disclosed today its financial results for third quarter of 2017, which ended on October 28th (GameStop uses a different calendar than most companies). During the financial conference call for investors and analysts, the company’s executives talked about the performance of Microsoft’s new Xbox One X console.

First of all, Chief Financial Officer Robet Lloyd mentioned that the Xbox One X will be a sales driver in the current quarter, and has been “in high demand.”

Chief Operating Officer Tony Bartel followed up by explaining that Xbox One X has been “up to a very strong start” after selling out the entire “market-leading” initial allocation in two days, the retailer is selling new units “as soon as they hit the shelves.” According to Bartel demand will outstrip support throughout the holidays.

Speaking of games, GameStop is “very pleased” with the performance of Call of Duty: WWII, which sold 64% more than Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare last year. Destiny 2‘s “strength” has also been mentioned as a driver of a 5.4% increase in overall new software sales.

StarJay I'm not surprised but I don't think they are as great as people make them..


As someone who is a PC enthusiast and does a majority of their gaming on PC (I have a GTX 1080) I can honestly say that the Xbox One X is a great machine. There is a reason people are saying great things about it. I own one and would not hesitate to buy most of my multiplat games on it now.

All its down to atm is do you want 4k 60fps.. or do you want 1080p 60fps.. The console is obviously better than the original tho.
