That's because Nintendo makes games for a wide audience and that have massive staying power (and don't come out with yearly editions). However, FE:RD did get dropped to $20, Warioland: Shake has been priced dropped and Metroid 3 was effectively dropped to $20 with the trilogy ($20 / game). Animal Crossing has special price discounts all the time and Brawl occasionally sees price discounts as well. So even the big N is not totally immune. However, Nintendo in general doesn't follow the business model of gradually decreasing price. Everyone else does.
