Forums - Sales - 360 Elite selling out?

Our local Best Buy and Gamestop have some still, if I was going to buy one it would be my purchase of choice though :D so I immagine there doing well. I woulden't be surprised if many stores sold out of them.

No its not, DEFINATLY NOT. I came from best buy Saturday(after blak friday) and I saw over 100 360's on the floor in the center of the store. More tha half of those were ELITES.

lol, and the PS3's were completely sold out, right ? ....


No

I saw a bunch this weekend but no Premiums in sight.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Game.co.uk is sold out of PS3s both types, but that is just one place, and I'm sure that most game stores have plentiful supplies. Anyway, weren't there reports of PS3s selling out in some places in the US, I thought it was common for stores to sell out of consoles at this time and you would not expect an instant restock



Ok why are we even talking about PS3's? This thread has nothing to do with them LOL

Good for the 360. It deserves it right now. My guess though is this is just a Black Friday, need for restocking issue. Many times companies will pull an item from a website to restabalize sold out stock in stores. It is also Cyber Monday today. For those outside the US, the monday after Black Friday is becoming the online Black Friday.

I saw lots of good deals on the 360 last friday, but we have to remember all the reports of the Zune selling well.

If the elites are still gone in a week then we really may have an unprecidented Holiday on our hands.



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.

*naznatips is exempt

leo-j,

Where was that Best Buy located?

Orland Park, IL and Downers Grove, IL are out of both Premium and Elites.

You can check Best Buy online to see if one is available for pickup. So let us know where people can find them.



Libraries sell systems not individual games

I noticed the same thing over the last 2 weeks. I've seen arcades, premiums, and a few Halo editions, but not a single Elite. I've been in Target, Wal-Mart, Toys R Us, Circuit City, and Best Buy. None...

I wonder if Microsoft was in the process of a hardware mod and they didn't ship enough or something prior to a changeover to something newer... I just thought it was a fluke but after seeing all the anecdotal stuff all over the net they are either selling really well, supply is short, or some combination thereof...



I hate trolls.

Systems I currently own:  360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong.  Yes, Pong.

Well... I've been all over the Net and I can't find an Elite. None of the stores around my area have one either. So yeah they've been selling out I think.



Boycotting the following:

1. Yoshi: He ate my car and spit out a toaster.

2. Igglybuff: Totally false advertisement. You can have as many as you like they don't buff nothing.

3. the Terms Hardcore/Softcore... We're talking Video Games. Not Porn.

4. The term Casual as relates to Gamers: We make them sound like outsider's that happen to play games.  If that were the case they'd own a PS3.

5. Donuts.... Beacause I drink Beer...... and the biggest fan of Donuts hates Beer.

6. Boycotts: Their so lame.
