A smaller market doesn't mean anything will improve for consumers, it just means things will get more difficult for producers |
Smaller market size means that focus consumers increases, and a larger market size doesn't necessarily mean more money. 1 million sales for a 60$ game is just as good as 60million sales for a 1$ game.
One of my favorite quotes was on another forum:
"While From Software was popping Champagne about Dark Soul's selling 2 million, Square Enix was crying about Tomb Raider selling 10 million"
