| vonboy said: if they end up selling 40 million copies of the game, how much money will even half of those people playing online cost nintendo? they must be buying more and more servers all the time to offset the rapidly increasing online player base. |
Well, let's say they earn 20 dollars pr copy (conservative, but economy might have changed it so it's like that).
Then they earn 800 million dollars on the game.
Do the servers cost even 10 million to have to a year? I doubt it.
The server cost is minimal compared to what they make.
