| shams said: Game pricing has nothing to do with the cost of a games development. The Wii is still relatively new, and as such, has the price of "standard" games (from last-gen). MS/Sony are milking consumers by convincing them that $60US ($120AU!) is a reasonable price to pay for a next-gen game - but if people buy them, then hey. At least some of them will be worth this. Nintendo could charge this level for Galaxy / Metroid - and they would still sell. But Im glad they don't, and it brings it back to pricing for the average consumer rather than a hard-core gamer. |
Are you kidding me? Can you not see the difference in a final product Wii game to a Final product game for 360or PS3? Nothing inside the Wii is relatively new at all. It is made with old hardware that people have been designing on for years. There is alot more money going into PS3 and 360 games.
MS and sony are Milking people? I have a Gamecube and a Wii along with a PS2 and PS3 . After playing the Wii you can feel that maybe Nintendo could have made a Motion sensing bar and controller for the gamecube and that would have been very much like the Wii and the Wii games. on the other hand the PS3 is clearly an evolution over the PS2 you see it in every sceen of every game. I am in no way trying to tear down the Wii but it is what it is . It is last generation hardware, and sould be cheaper than PS3 and 360 to develop for.
