They've got cause and effect a little mixed up there. Used games wouldn't be a big deal if the new games weren't so expensive. People wouldn't feel compelled to trade in their games right after purchase if it wasn't $60 new and then a $25 trade-in. Cut both those figures in half and the used market has a lot less throughput, with lots more new game sales.
