Microsoft has said that pre-orders for the Xbox One are “trending ahead” of those enjoyed by the Xbox 360 at the same stage in its pre-release cycle.
“Xbox One, which will launch this fall, has already seen impressive pre-order sales as consumers have signed up to be the first to receive the new system,” Microsoft said in its US June sales update.
"In fact, Xbox One pre-orders are trending ahead of Xbox 360 pre-orders during the same time period and have already sold out at most major US retailers.”
In addition, CVG (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/419730/ps4-and-xbox-one-pre-orders-twice-the-size-of-last-gen-says-ubisoft-ceo/) reports that Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has said that early signs also suggest that PS4 and Xbox One are going to enjoy a stronger start on the market than both of their predecessors.
"Some retailers, not all of them, are saying pre-orders [are] two times than what they saw in the last generation launch," he claimed. "They're getting more pre-orders than what they saw before."
