How hard is it to implement a queue system?

This is what is crazy though, the PS5 Pro launch was a pretty big flop because it was overpriced, offered negligible performance gains over the current PS5 so the actual demand for it was pants as nobody wanted it - Even if they didn't have a queue system, you could just buy them on the rainforest without a problem.

The same happens for a GPU and people lose their minds and must have it? PC owners just clearly happier to blow obscene amounts of money for small performance increases.

I bought a ps5 in 2020 at launch and it was so easy to get one; the demand was huge but there was a lot of stock too!
 
there was still 30th Anniversary left, because scalpers didn't manage to scalp them
I don't think scalpers tried to scalp them
I ordered one without queuing at all and saw plenty in stock in many places.

A queue system doesn't stop scalpers/bots, it just gives that illusion so people stop complaining
