This is especially the case if you are an Xbox enthusiast and have already pre-ordered the devices. However, that enthusiasm might be cut short, especially if you pre-ordered from certain retailers.
Best Buy canceled Xbox series X pre-orders without notice
Many users have gone onto public forums expressing their confusion as to why Best Buy canceled their pre-orders of the Xbox series X console:
What makes the situation all the more awkward is that in some cases Best Buy refunded the users without actually confirming the pre-order cancelation:
That being said, even if the orders were made mere minutes apart, Best Buy most likely canceled the once made right after their stocks were officially depleted. Users aren’t very pleased with this turn of events, since many stated that it would have been more logical to not have their pre-orders canceled, even if it did mean waiting a bit longer for a re-stock. All in all, this inconvenience indirectly affects Microsoft’s revenue for the Xbox series X launch, although dedicated Xbox gamers will probably order the console again once the stocks are filled. Alternatively, they could always try to go to a different retailer, although not too many are available. Don’t forget that the Xbox series S and Xbox series X consoles will become available on November 10, and that many new things await you as of that date. These include:
More games included in your Game Pass Ultimate subscription A ton of optimized older games for the next-gen console Better deals for all Xbox subscriptions overall A totally reworked Microsoft Store for Xbox
