When the Xbox 360 came out decades ago, the store I got mine from did this. They had like 10 consoles and there were like 200 people there. They did a raffle for the consoles and I got to buy one. It felt like I won the Xbox even though I still had to pay for it.
Had that at a national electronics chain in romania for the PS5 launch.
I never thought much of the need for trigger warnings until I read “the Xbox 360 came out decades ago”
