I doubt they made 54 dollars per sale


from what i here is that people make 48 dollars per sale.

 That's a decent average for how much each copy (Of a RRP $60 game) is sold to retailers, but then you have to take royalties, manufacturing, taxes, shipping etc off that $48. It'll be less if retailers order large bulks of a game or maybe be discounted for 'priority' store space.

 FFXIII retail price in yen was like nearly $100 though hence why they've made gangbusters so far. I sevely doubt the game cost $80 million to make but advertising would probably be above $10 million, albeit I don't know if it'd be any different in Japan.
