Tres - Not all PS3 games are 60, only a few AAA are, which cost more into the 30 mil range to develop. As for Wii games, most sell for 50 as well. $50 is the average for all games, cross platform. Don't believe me? Go to your retailers nearby and have a look at the shelf price.

You really should just shut your mouth instead of trying to accuse people when you don't have any idea what you're talking about. I've worked in the industry since 98, dealt with people on many different levels and have attended industry conferences focused on the business perspective side of things for years now.

Check the numbers, they don't lie. You should really read up on how percentages of a game sale are broken up.

People around here are getting sick of your crap. Shape up or shut up.

Who accused who? You accused me of trolling and justified it by lying. The average Wii game is not 50$, you are outright lying there. The average HD game is 10$~ more expensive than a Wii game, therefore the revenue a publisher gets back is around 10$ more.

Also, Nintendo takes a bigger chunk of the money for every copy sold than Sony or MS do. You know you are not spelling the truth, that's why you resort to insults and twist things. I'm very disappointed, I expected better from a guy who works in the industry.

Unfortunately, I won't shut up.

I invite you to go look it up yourself, Tres. Go to the store and look at the average price of games. Hell, even TP is still selling for $50, and that game is 3 years old now.

Also, did you not read about Nintendo reducing its fees in 2007? They were since positioned in between MS and Sony, with MS taking a larger chunk out. Do you have any proof otherwise, or will you insist that everyone should trust what you say?

By the way, that wasn't an insult, that's how business rolls. Insults woud have been far worse. As for twists, how many years have you worked within the industry to know how the core of it works? Without that, you can't say "LIES!" and not prove it a lie, therefore, you are insulting my integrity.

FYI, there's a SLEW of wireless connections here on multiple IPs, and I have a ton of email accounts.
