Microsoft on Xbox One Vertical Orientation: 'Do it at your own risk'

Microsoft told GameSpot today that the Xbox One won't support vertical orientation due to the inclusion of a slot loading drive. 
The Xbox One won't support vertical orientation, and could damage the console, according to Albert Panello, senior director of product management and planning at Xbox.
Panello revealed to GameSpot at the Tokyo Game Show, "We don't support vertical orientation; do it at your own risk." He clarified that "it wouldn't be a cooling problem, we just didn't design the drive for vertical. Because it's a slot loading drive, we just didn't design it for both".
The Xbox One isn't the only system to feature a slot loading drive; both the PlayStation 3--original and slim models--and PlayStation 4 have a similar design, and users are free to orient those consoles horizontally or vertically without risking damage to the console.
Panello stated that Microsoft discovered that "we found, interestingly enough, that 80 percent of people, believe it or not, have their Xbox [360] horizontally".
The Xbox One is scheduled for launch in North America, most European markets, Australia, and New Zealand on November 22 this year, with follow-up releases in Japan and the remaining European markets in 2014.

Zachary at Save/Continue says, "Square Enix has been only too keen to advertise its latest bundles of classic titles, reimagined in high definition. With Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX now available worldwide, we are still left to wonder just when the Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster set will be coming out. Amazon still has its tentative release date set at the end of the year, and online searching has yielded no results. However, thanks to my super sleuthing, we may have a more defined release window available for you."
