So what? There is more games that sells a lot at first and equally they drop the price 5-6 months after launch, sometimes a little more. If third-parties are anti-consumer, Nintendo is not too far behind. And don't forget, the budget for wii games was low, I would say they are even more "anti-consumer"

You don't get value proposition do you?

Honda's keep their value FAR better than any other. Yet you wouldn't say they are anti-consumer.

Fact is Nintendo builds teh best game content that over time is STILL WORTH THE ORIGINAL PRICE to consumers.

3rd parties simply don't make that type of game. If they did, then they would keep the price up as well. A company drops price when it feels the value is not longer there and consumer purchasing proves that.

This is why Wii U is selling like crap as the mass consumer doesn't see the value in it at $300 because the mostly see "wii" and that's a $100 hardware. But Zelda Twilight Princess was still $50 (full price) five years after it released because Zelda games retain high value.

Are you talking about the car maker?
