I seriously think that the word "greed" is misused so badly on the Internet... or anywhere, really.
": a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (as money) than is needed" - Merriam-Webster online dictionary
I'm not going to quote the person, but trying to sell the 3DS for a profit isn't greed. A business trying to make a profit isn't greed. It would be greed if the business was literally trying to nickel and dime the customers.
It would be greed if each company did everything they could to squeeze as much as they could out of them.
If it were greed with the 3DS, they wouldn't have dropped the price to a point where they actually sold at a loss.
What happened was a mistake, a miscalculation.
Do I think Microsoft is greedy? I wouldn't really know, I am not even sure how much they are charging for everything. We still don't know that part.
