Since when do retailers earn 70% of the price of a game?

Since Valve said so !

So actually according to this:

there is no big difference (obviously no platform royalties for PC games). Valve gets more than a retailer, publisher gets slightly more on Steam compared to retail.

The image in the OP wasn't released by Valve, but videogamedesignschools.org.
