| Mr Puggsly said: People will say because they sell very well. But even the games with modest sales stay at a high price. I guess what it comes down to is Nintendo has a shit ton of money and they want full value for their games. They would probably sell more games and consoles if they lowered the price on older games. I'm sure as hell not paying full price for them. |
May I ask what games you are talking about? Below are 1st party games that didn't exactly set the charts on fire that are now a fraction of the price they were at launch.

In my experience, it's only the amazing selling games (MKWii, SSBBrawl, Mario Galaxy) that keep a high price for long periods of time, rather than the modest selling ones
