Trainwreck or not, I did get a disgusting amount of pre-orders yesterday at work for the Xbone. Mind you, I live next to a snobbish upperclass neighborhood full of kids whose parents will buy them whatever they want without a care in the world what it is and grown manchildren who have enough old money that they really don't care what they throw it at, but it does show that the XB1 has a market.
Like my boss said, though, the WiiU also sold fairly well at launch up to Xmas and then plummeted after people had realized what they got themselves into.
