Inflation does not matter. What matters is sticker shock. This is why games haven't risen since the 80's... because we have a perception of what a game should cost. If they started charging $80.00 per game, a lot of people would quit buying them.

The only solution is to start making cheaper games if they can't make the money they want to make. Nintendo does a good job of this so it's possible.
