Do you think China will be the fourth market soon?

so.... if Piracy can lead to ridiculous price drop.. What stopping first world country to pirate even more? Heck, you, the company is giving people the incentive to do so.

Using that logic, then, JP and US gamers should be pirating even more since European and Austrailia gamers pay incredibly higher prices for their games already.

The whole argument is that the Chinese market is huge...Could you imagine what would happen if.....Resistance: Fall of Man sold an extra 3,000,000 copies, even at $10 each? I mean, many games are at $19.99 and $29.99 for platinum priced games...$10 isn't very far from that.

 

but JP and US's lower price wasn't driven by Piracy. that's a HUGE difference there.

I don't see how you can mix those up.
