The current generation of consoles took a lot of flak for their aesthetics, with both Xbox and PlayStation taking hits. The Xbox Series X was compared to a humidifier, while the PS5 was described as looking like a massive wireless route from the early ’00s.

Microsoft quickly got in on the joke by releasing an official Xbox Series X mini fridge. This device keeps your drinks cold and has a USB slot for charging your phone & controllers, making it a useful device to take on a road trip, unlike the actual console itself.

In 2023, there were rumors of a follow-up kitchen appliance, as word got out about an Xbox Series S Toaster with a design that matched Microsoft’s other console.

It turns out that the rumors about the Xbox toaster are true, and Microsoft is one step closer to a full Xbox-themed kitchen suite. The Xbox Series S Toaster is real (as spotted by Pure Xbox) and is available to purchase from Walmart for $39.99.

The Xbox Series S Toaster fits two slices of bread and can be switched to accommodate larger items, like bagels. It has six heating settings, a timer/clock, and a defrost button for people who like to freeze their bread.

Not only does the toaster resemble an Xbox Series S, but it also burns the Xbox sphere insignia on your toast. This means that you can relive the Xbox 360 loading screen every morning as you make your breakfast in preparation for a long day ahead.

The Xbox Series S Toaster would be a great gift for a video game fan, especially if it can be put in a place of pride next to the Xbox Series X fridge.

Buying one to put next to my xbox fridge and watercooler. Now just an oven left to complete the set.

 

[GHG]

Just as crummy as the real thing then.

 

[3liteDragon]

Phil's too good at his job.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Well, it does have a disc slot at least!

 

[theStartupSound]

I like the idea, but the toasts are looking way too dark for my taste

What?

 

[Monad]

Not only NeoGAF mocks their consoles, but also themselves.

Playstation should start selling routers in PS5 design.

Spreading X for breakfast.

What are the bonus stats for having full set?

 

[Fredrik]

MS should ask NPD if they can count it as console sales

 

[Markio128]

I’d have thought it’d only provide digital toast.

 

[Skifi28]

I don't know about the stats, but the set bonus is transforming into a green rat and becoming a permanent exhibit on Phil's shelf.

 

[Godot25]

I hope it will be released in Europe...

 

[gaming_again]

Looking forward to playing Doom on it.

 

[alphachino]

I guess they’re switching from eating monsters to toast for breakfast

 

[Robb]

I’ll wait for the 12 teraflop Series X toaster, thank you very much.

 

[acm2000]

you can get these toasters for various brands but they are all useless, unless you like your toast really dark you wont even get much of a branding on it.

my local football team had them for the badge on the toast, took them like 5 years to sell through the initial minimum order they had to buy

 

[mejin]

Now that's a box I'm finally interested.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Looks awesome, way better than the XSX fridge.

 

[Bernoulli]

Nice way to boost console sales

 

[Insane Metal]

Engagement through the roof with this

 

[Gudji]

It even gets the xbox logo on the bread so good. Finally gonna buy something xbox this gen.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

probably see more use than the actual console

 

[SHA]

It can toast crysis at breakfast, lunch and dinner.

 

[Beechos]

Too bad verizon beat Microsoft and released the series x router already.

 

[Beer Baelly]

This and the Xbox fridge are definitely in Aaron's kitchen

 

[lughnasadh123]

Obligatory "Xbox is toast" joke.

 

[kiphalfton]

And I'm sure it's a POS like the XSX "fridge".

I’d have thought it’d only provide digital toast.

A good feature is that you can partially toast some bread, stop the toasting, or rather suspend it, then come back to it later and resume the toasting.

I believe that feature doesn’t work with all bread.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

If you're interested in getting one make sure the seller is Walmart/Xbox themselves and not some rando 3rd party.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Marketing department with too much time on their hands trying to expand the brand. Sony and MS have done their share of PS and Xbox branded housewares. Some for gifty laughs, some serious stuff hoping it'd take off into consumer lifestyles.

 

[FunkMiller]

Sadly the toast is only able to achieve 30 fps at 720p.

 

[mitch1971]

Well they are finally first at something.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

I believe that feature doesn’t work with all bread.

Yeah, some breads just time out, but I think with some of those they've managed to set it that it can quickly contact a dough-main quickly and get going again.

 

[MarkMe2525]

My God it's beautiful

 

[E-Cat]

Still prefer the PS3 grill

 

[JackMcGunns]

Just as crummy as the real thing then.

Someone is feeling the burn

Keep trolling and you’ll be toast!

 

[BlackTron]

And I thought the real Series S had crumbs inside

 

[demented waffle]

Well, it was a toaster anyway. Now it can finally cook toast.

Imagine being so sensitive you can't take a joke.

Phil doesn't know you.

Aww man, so you didn't get MY jokes then? So many great puns gone to waste

Who's the sensitive one in the end? haha
