Dedicated servers
Free online
Automatically download updates for all the games in my collection
Allow developers to push updates quickly
Ability to transfer or re-download my game collection on another machine when I sign in
Availability for developers to interface with Microsoft Azure
Complete access to my music collection
Achievements, leaderboards and stats
Great apps for Netflix, Skype, Hulu, Youtube, HBO GO, ESPN, Twitch TV, Spotify, etc
No proprietary hard drives - completely configurable
Built-in browser
Backwards compatibility dating back to 90s. Including online play (unlike Twisted Metal Black or Halo 2)
Compatible with Dual Shock 3, 360 control pads, Wii mote and even Kinect
Completely open indie scene
Best version of multiplatform games (1080p, 60fps)
Completely configurable button mapping
Competitive marketplaces. Some free games, some pay what you want deals, massive discounts
Travel model available that can hook up to TV via HDMI or that you can take with you with an attached screen to a friend's place or something
A nice bonus would be if I could play console games from Atari and NES all the way to PS2, Gamecube and Wii.
I'd pay the price of two XBox Ones for this. Is this a pipe dream?
