Actually the userbase and the revenue is too, look at total revenue for gaming for the last 3 years in the US.... Heck, look at NPD monthly revenue numbers, every month we get 30 to 50% better than last year and last year was a record year.
The gaming industry is not different than any other industry. As Revenue grows there will be consolidation and production costs will increase wether due to HD or not ( Madden and GH production costs have increased tremendously over the last years and it has nothing to do with HD, it's just a tool publishers use to bar the competition from competing with them). Bottom line of economics is you very rarely can have for a susbtained amount of time companies spending little money and making huge amount of profits except in quasi-monopoly markets. Otherwise some new companies will always step in and the profit will fall.. What we are seeing in the gaming market is no different from what you see in any others market as it matures. The amateurs/company badly run will slowly phase out or get bought and more and more the market will be dominated by big companies... What you are suggesting is that Nintendo actually cares about small developers and that is probably far from their mind, all they care about is reporting record earnings to their shareholders and making their company as powerfull as possible... |
wow...how pathetic you ar indeed
I stopped reading once you started about growth....use that thick coconut on that neck of yours to actually read this.:
growth is all due to Wii and DS...if they did not exist...there would NOT be a profit growth in the gaming industry right now...sorry...
what a fool..
