Another way to look at this is the Wii has 42 Games that have sold above 250,000 units (not including Wii Sports and Wii Play), and 81 games that have sold more than 100,000 units. With the low cost of development, high number of ports and small scale of many exclusive titles it is highly likely that all of the 42 games that sold more than 250,000 turned a healthy profit and the games between 100,000 and 250,000 have (are close to) breaking even. This is a very good for the Wii because it demonstrates that a large quantity of games have currently (at least) broken even, and as the userbase grows more games will (at least) break even or turn a healthy profit. |
Where are you getting those figures? |
He's pulling them out of his ass. 'Low cost of development'!!!!!!! 'High number of ports'. What?? 'Small scale of many exclusive titles'. Yay, like that is a good thing?? Yeah, but it is 'likely' that they all made a healthy profit. It's also likely that this thread is a joke. |
I am looking for the list about the 42 Games that have sold above 250,000 units (not including Wii Sports and Wii Play), and 81 games that have sold more than 100,000 units.
As for developemnt costs.
