Day One*

Still available six months after launch.

I just cut my finger scrolling past this post.

*ouch*

 

[AngelOFDeath]

Limited to the first 100,000 pre-orders, so don't fret it won't sell out.

Spoiler

I kid I kid

 

[VE3TRO]

I hope we can still get the normal version at launch.

Day One*

Still available six months after launch.

It was Year One Edition in Europe.

 

[BlackBuzzard]

In Europe these will be 2 year edition cause that is how long they will stay on shelves.

 

[El-Suave]

Looks cheap on the otherwise beautiful console. MS should have thought about including a tattoo voucher for the hardcore Scorpions.

 

[The Pet of the Month]

It was Year One Edition in Europe.

That's cause the One didn't launch everywhere in Europe, right?

 

[Darklor01]

Watch how quickly tunes change about pre-order if they read by pre-ordering this edition, you get early access in October.

 

[Shil Pencer]

The hate lol wow just wow

 

[LordKano]

That's a nice looking console.

 

[nillapuddin]

The text is hideous and unwanted, I'm intrigued by the "textured" shell but I can't make anything out from pictures.

Completely plain unobtrusive console please, i dont want it to stand out, I want it to blend in...

 

[Guymelef]

That's cause the One didn't launch everywhere in Europe, right?

Maybe, if you ask almost everyone will say you that it hasn't be released yet.

 

[Mr. Phellps]

The texture is sexy AF.

 

[The Pet of the Month]

I don't imagine perception will change much if the 1X is tiered worldwide again.

 

[Shin-Ra]

The texture would just made it incredibly difficult to keep clean of dust, which is a problem with black consoles.

 

[Theorry]

Texture is nice. The writing dont know yet. Need some better and up close pics.

 

[Leyasu]

The hate lol wow just wow

It's pathetic.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

Nice move. Many fans have associated Scorpio with the xbox one x. This is a nice gesture for fans.

 

[bigDdestruction]

More interested in the games. All the power in the world won't mean anything unless you have the games to back it up and BC doesn't count.

 

[FelipeMGM]

the console looks great

 

[AlexFlame116]

I love the name Scorpio so this console is for me.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

There's loads of games and loads more coming.

 

[Syrus]

I like it.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

I think the only thing that they could have done that would make it even cooler is if the texture was made up all of tiny Xs.

 

[Sangetsu-II]

I don't understand this business practice.

Don't they actually lose sales from people that wanted the non branded normal XB1 X console but now have to wait for these ugly Day 1 versions to run out of stock?

Edit: Or will both SKU's be available?

 

[Jaguar Victory]

Totally getting an XBOX One X but at first blush this design addition is sorta "meh". Give me a controller that fades from black to green.

 

[Ehker]

It's so subtle though, I doubt it's a big deal. Nail polish remover?

 

[Ash Sparrow]

MS finally building sleek looking consoles for a bit now

 

[Jumeira]

Nice...so , MS, when can we, you know.... preorder the thing ? Christ.

 

[Theorry]

Nice...so , MS, when can we, you know.... preorder the thing ? Christ.

Sunday.

 

[Nikana]

Nice...so , MS, when can we, you know.... preorder the thing ? Christ.

It's a leak, not an announcement. And they have stated that news is coming Sunday.

 

[Icedburden]

Are we sure this green lettering is legit?

 

[GTR R35_Supra RZ]

Get this Matrix crap off my console.

But for real, why?

The 'star of the design' is Project Scorpio in fuck ugly
piss green letters , ruining the minimalism and elegance of its design

Thanks but no thanks

This'll be about as worthless as the Day 1 Edition controllers.

Looks really out of place on the controller. Ugly.

This looks even dumber than the DAY ONE 2013 xbox ones.

So uh. How do I get one without that? I don't want tacky green text on my high end electronics. Video games look childish enough. This looks way worse.

In Europe these will be 2 year edition cause that is how long they will stay on shelves.

Never cease to amaze me, that salt and hate.

 

[Gator86]

That looks comically lazy. Good for them for leaning into memes, I guess.

 

[Nikana]

What?

 

[AmyS]

Sold.

I was anyway but fuck yeah, Project Scorpio is an awesome name.

I want them to continue the zodiac theme with the future Xbox as well, which apparently is already being designed and has a codename.

 

[Dlacy13g]

Do we know for sure this is real and not some fool getting the internet to buy into his photo shop? Regardless...I think its fine. I still like the overall look and a little color on your console wont' kill you. Look how many people bought what I deem horribly ugly neon joy con switch's?

 

[rokkerkory]

looks so slapped on (the green font) lol

textured side looks boss... but i want white one

 

[MosquitoSmasher]

They really really should have went with Xbox Scorpio anyway. They did explain why this didn't happen and it makes sense but still.

But if this is one of the surprises.... yeah...

 

[muzzymate]

Does it come with the Day One achievement? Man that was worthless. At least my Day One controller still looks neat-o and works with my S console. I'm one of the monsters who like the original bumpers over the revised 3rd gen controllers. Too bad the d-pad is starting to stick and repeat commands.

 

[Icedburden]

Project Scorpio was the actual name, buddy.

 

[Ehker]

Never cease to amaze me, that salt and hate.

Different opinions amaze you?

This isn't some flawless beauty mark that was never going to be critiqued.

 

[ryan299]

Controller is bad. With their love of controller designs, I don't know why they wouldn't design a special one for this, if true.

 

[Sickness702]

I don't mind the Scorpio Edition but I did have hell with my Day One Edition. My console died so I took it back to Bestbuy and they gave me shit about replacing it because it was the day one sku, not the regular sku. They said they can't replace it since it's a different item so it had to be sent into Microsoft who was on back order for Day One Edition replacements with an "unavailable" estimation time. To make a long story short, I bitched until I was sent a refurbished regular unit smh 😑

 

[Sangetsu-II]

It's so subtle though, I doubt it's a big deal. Nail polish remover?

Im not saying the majority mind it, just questioning if the would lose some sales if they don't offer both SKU's

 

[DizzyCaffeine]

It really should be an Elite controller, but whatever.

 

[PositiveGamer]

It really should be an Elite controller, but whatever.

Thats a 600 SKU then.

 

[MaximusPayne]

Never cease to amaze me, that salt and hate.

It's hilarious. Here's an idea. Don't get it Day 1. BOOM.

 

[AmyS]

 

[Vyrance]

Looks good
