And marketing costs nothing. People like to think that games like wii fit were as cheap as it gets but I see adverts for it on TV all the time. I think wii fit has cost nintendo more than Killzone 2 will cost sony but it's a secret guys.

...Considering that the Wii Fit is on its way to making something like 2 billion in revenue, I think that it gets a pass on that front. I'm sure it's profitable. I cannot imagine how it might not be.

 

The point was not that wii fit wasn't profitable. It's just to show that the difference in cost for PS360 games vs wii games isn't as black and white as people like to paint it out to be. EA can pull off a strategy like wii fit's for dead space wii and it would cost just as much as the ps360 version easily.
