    I didn't see it as scoffing. Yoshi-P explicitly says, even during the presentation, that he personally wants a Mac version (and also mentioned it over a year ago). I took the "joking" and "laugh" to be that he knows their schedule & resources don't allow time for it, yet he keeps mentioning his wish to the team.

    As for "Mac's demands", it could mean amount of resources and technical requirements. We don't know what that involves. Like elsewhere for what sounds like a simple thing, he says their cost to allow storing users' hotbar & macro settings on the server "will require a couple of millions in investment".


    Late edit: That "millions" is in yen. That would probably translate to "over US$20,000", so not "cheap" but not as outrageously expensive as it initially sounded.
