Apparently I do expect too much, if stuff like "proper beta testing" and "asking the customers what they want" is too much.
"Nice enough?" That's settling. I choose not to settle when that much time and money is involved. That's where quality comes from, people not settling.
Since when does popularity=quality? Never saw that written down as a requirement. Anywhere.
"You're never going to find the perfect system with your attitude. Because there is no perfect system."
But there are better systems and worse systems.
"Because God forbid, the name sucks."
So even you admit it!
"Or because it doesn't offer the full libraries of every game system ever."
Fine. Small defeat conceded.
"Or because it asks you the tiniest inconvenience of using a damn wrist strap while playing."
I refer you to the "it's not a perfect world, and people don't have perfect memories" arguement from earlier.
"Or because it has the gall to cost more than two hundred dollars."
I want what I pay for, and PS3s don't give me that, in my opinion.
