| CrashMan said: On HD consoles, even Million seller games may lose a company money, depending on how big the budget (and anecdotally, the PS3 is the worst offender in this case.) While Wii games, with their much reduced production costs don't need to sell nearly as many copies to turn a profit. And ANY profit is good for business. |
What happens next generation to all these hardcore third-party games on Nintendo consoles? The most successful and safest games for third-parties tend to be franchise titles but if these games can't even sell a million at $10-$20 less than typical HD titles how can they be expected to sell enough to be profitable or be viable franchises on a HD platform?
