I understand. Covid. But, even with Covid and the Omicron variant around it doesn't make sense why you still have to go through such hurdles to try and get a next gen console. Especially trying to outdo scalpers and their bots. I just came back from buying a last minute Christmas gift and stores are packed anyway. And they have been all year. People are out and about. Series S's are in stores. What's the problem with just having a socially distanced line and requiring masks?
I have my Xbox series X and PS5 but boy was it a hassle. Everyday on alert for some Twitter notification and racing to the app or site to try and beat scalpers. The average parent doesn't know or have the patience to try and acquire a system for their child this way. Lots of upset children for a second Christmas in a row because of this. I have people at work constantly asking me if I can try and find one for them because they want one for their kid or whoever and they've been trying for over a year.
