You can find cheap shooters, RPGs, action games and just about everything else for under 10 dollars on iOS. Does that mean that all the games from these genres need to get realistic and drop their prices? |
The quality of an iOS FPS game isn't even close to the quality of a console FPS title, while a 2D Mario quality is very much on par with PSN/XBLA budget price 2D platform games, in my opinion.

Words we all tend to forget all too often.
Regardless, even if you don't want to acknowledge that quality is subjective, whoever was it that said that quality has anything to do with pricing? It has something to do with the value an average consumer sees in the product, but nothing whatsoever to do with "quality" as you or I or any other individual sees it.

It isn't my opinion, they are. You are confusing quality with popularity. Release a 2D Mario clone without Mario or his name and it will not sell as much, and people have tried. Lets not pretend that Mario alone doesn't sell something regardless of quality or price, is why Nintendo sticks Mario in most of their games.

Yeah, who would have guessed that a no-name game won't sell as much as a game of a popular and critically acclaimed franchise...
