Still?! hmm, I wouldn't want to buy the console if its been sitting in their warehouse for almost 6 months.

This is indeed a problem and they are already launch units, which have a higher chance of failing.

And that's sitting on store shelves just like the standard model.
The funny thing is people actually care about this. I remember about a month after launch a guy at work offered to buy my X1 off me, but he only wanted it if it was a day one edition! I was surprised because I am a video game nut, and I did not care at all it's just a stupid sticker (for the record mine was not a Day One).
But now it's just stupid because you give up free Titanfall or Forza 3 by going with the Day 1. So I doubt sales of the remaing day 1's will be high. Could take a long time to work through even a little stock.

I don't see why can't they just stuff digital codes into those Day 1 boxes and turn them into Day 1 Titan Fall Bundurus.

I suspect some would care, very much, if launch day PS4's were still available on amazon.
not really, since a launch day PS4 is exactly the same as a regular PS4. LOL. WTF? In fact the only "difference" was Amazon segregating the PS4's they had available for launch.
Whereas the Day 1 Xbox is actually a different SKU (different color box, some writing on the controller etc, and an achievement, that I know of)
Besides also that in that case it would just be the same as a regular PS4, while with X1 day 1 you give up the free game you get by buying a non-day 1 edition, a $60 value.
To sum it up:
Titanfall bundle X1=499
Forza 5 bundle X1=499
Day One edition X1-no game included =499
You see there is incentive to NOT buy the day 1 edition. Just depends if you value the day one stuff more than a free game.
