Quality is completely subjective. For example, some people find games like Zack and Wiki, Madworld, and World of Goo to be high quality - I found them to be quite boring; people mentioned Wii Sports as being low quality, but I had way more fun playing Wii Sports than all three of those so-called high quality titles combined.
Of course, my favourite Wii game also happened to be one of the consoles least successful, and that was Rune Factory Frontier.
As for comparing games like Pokemon to fast food. That's a terrible analogy; the appeal of fast food is that it is fast. Fact: Team Ico games take the same amount of time to buy as a Pokemon game. The reason goes back to my first point, that quality is subjective; and way more people feel Pokemon is a better experience than Ico. Pokemon has one of the largest fanbases in the history of videogames.
Inception is a good example of a game that many people felt was great - but I found kind of stupid (Well maybe stupid is too strong of a word; silly?). Most of the people who found it "cool"said they had to watch it two or three times to really "get it"; so perhaps it only works on people who can't quite get it the first time? I got it on the first go - but found the idea of "going into a dream within a dream within a dream, and fighting off guys with machine guns who are created to force you out of the dream, and getting stuck in limbo if they kill you in the dream within a dream within a dream" reminded me of a Derrick Comedy skit called "Daughters". Oh, and and the segment of FF7 when Tifa went into Cloud's dreams to allow him to find out who he really was (not the SOLDIER, or a creation of Hojo, but the regular trooper who wanted to be SOLDIER).
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
