I noticed that immediately too and in my opinion reflected so poorly on the over engineering. I remember the PS3 having a lot of silly little nuances that don’t make the games any better. Like the buttons that weren’t real buttons. The PS3 slim cut costs and eliminated all these things.

My sense is that it’s all just a way to help make the price tag feel like you’re getting something premium.

You are. I'ms till using a ps3 daily a decade later and by now I feel a weird affection for it. Over engineering is good.
