Me: "Hey, do you have any copies of The Phantom Pain for Xbox One?"
Lady: "Nope sorry, we've got 10 copies for PS4 though."
Me: "Ah, dang, thanks anyway."
Fast-forward to the next GameStop
Me: "Do you guys have any Xbox One copies of The Phantom Pain?"
Lady: "Nah. It's crazy how hard it is to find Xbox One copies. We have so many PS4 copies we don't know what to do with them. The closest GameStop that has an Xbox One copy is [Downtown Portland]."
Me: "Oh, that's a little too far. Thanks anyway."
WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FIND METAL GEAR SOLID FIVE FOR XBOX ONE?
EDIT: Before you say, "Just buy a digital copy," The Phantom Pain is a game I'd love to have a disc for. Personal preference.

Places like Gamestop really need to go out of business.
-
Are gamestops the only retailers in your town?
-
Standard Edition for MGS V is sold out on PS4 for Amazon. That's the first time I've ever seen a game being sold out on there.
-
...buy a physical copy online? op dun have thinking cap on?
-
Painful dude, hope you find one soon. It was the first big game I got digital but I also prefer hard copy's for my fav games
-
Just tell them you reserved a copy but they already sold it, works every time.
-
Since metal gear is primarily a playstation game it is likely that they shipped a fair amount of extras for ps4, and had a very small number of xbox one versions shipped (expecting it wouldnt be as popular on xbox, which is probably a given).
-
Believe it or not, MGSV has sold more PHYSICAL copies on PS4 than the One. I do not know about digital downloads.
-
I dunno, go to Walmart or something. I saw dozens of copies on display there for both PS4 and XB1.
