Capcom: Original cool games don't make money, Dead Rising port yes

Was it you who wrote that on capcom forums? :)

 

Anyway, do you have anything to back your claims of 90% of Z&W sales being at 50€/$? It was never a 50€ game in EU. After a month or so, it has been 20€ game. You don't get 20$ profit from 20€ sales. I also doubt that those 3 games you mentioned cost only ~3million each. Do you have anything to back that up?

Oh man, it was you. Amazing how annoyed a ninty-fan can be if his beliefs are shattered. :D:D

 

 

I think Zack & Wiki was 50 € when it launched in the EU. Now it's a 30 € game at least in Portugal and Sweden, not sure about other countries.

Oh wait, it's 40 € at Amazon France:

EDIT - Rather interestingly, it's still 50 € at Fnac France:
