Games should become more profitable after a time, since the fixed development costs are paid off at some point. After a few months/years the only costs are retail/publisher margin and the physical cost.

So even tracking price reductions wouldn't account for true profit. A sale is a sale. If people coming here to look at figures solely cared about profit, a lot of games and several entire consoles wouldn't even figure (PS3, Xbox, DC...)
