The philosophy for tech isn't the same now. Tech is replaceable now when it wasn't before. It's a mind set the population happily adopted to boot. New phone or laptop every year. Why keep the old when there's something new? Me and my dad working on maintaining our PCs and consoles was important to us and things had to be designed to last. Now it's all planned obsolescence OR fear of missing out on something as insignificant as 'I have the new thing too, look at me guys!'.

More money in selling consoles, controllers or phones that need replacing every few years due to cheap construction or 'feature creep'. Why be embarrassed when a fool is so easily parted from their money?
