loool at people saying legs and quality.
Yes Mario has ever green legs and Nintendo titles aren't as front loaded as other publishers but generally Nintendo maintain their price regardless of sales. Why is Pikmin, donkey kong, windwaker HD, Wonderful 101 etc more expensive then GTA 5 (360), when the later game continues to outsell them?
Clearly Nintendo think its more beneficial to maintain profit margins versus increasing sales with much lower margins profit margins. The only Nintendo games where price cuts would have very little to no effect is mainline Mario, Smash Bros and Mario Kart 8. It works for them no doubt, but it would nice to be able to find more bargains of 2 year old software without going 2nd hand.

Go to Gamestop. I'll wait.

Did you see it? Tons of used copies of games like Call of Duty and GTA. Virtually no used copies of the big Nintendo franchises. I got a copy of CoD:AW from a friend and planned to trade it in. I'm stuck with it because it dropped in value so fast. The market is flooded for thos game. Mranwhile, I can trade in a used old Pokemon game for almost full MSRP. Nintendo doesn't control this. Demand does.
