You know what would be crazy, when they announce it and show everything about it, they ended the direct with available in stores right now. Then watch all the fans run to shops to buy one lol.

(but sadly shop employees wouldn't be able to keep their mouth shut, so I don't think that would happen as it wouldn't be able to be kept as a secret)

that wouldn’t just be crazy, that’d potentially be suicidal for the system’s launch. Have we forgotten about the Sega Saturn? (though I do agree…it’d be impossible for that to happen without a massive leak exposing everything.)

I think the Sega situation was a bit different as the brain was wired differently. Post iphone's first launch, lot of mentality has changed (well here at least). People seem to want quick self gratification an show boating they have the best and latest over waiting and working towards something. 

But you would need a standout launch line up and enough supply to make it doable. I lost interest in PS5 and the XBOX as stock issues and by the time I could get one was like 2 years in lol. Eventually I ended up getting a PS5 but only for my race sim setup, don't even know what other game are out on it as stopped following when hardware was too hard to get.
