These are figures from 2008, that's 7 years ago, and even then the price to develop the average Wii game is 5-6 million euros (5.2m - 6.3m usd), so the salary calculation i made on previous pages stands firm as a low end figure taking inflation and market conditions into account, the real staff cost is likely to be closer to 6m usd on it's own, which makes the brake even line even higher. |
I did not know you are a developer. I understand you can not reveal any numbers BUT...
...if you take the above mentioned cost for developing for PS3/X360 ($18.8m-$28.2m) adding inflation and marketing costs, as well as all your mentioned costs - does this mean that an average AA/AAA game for this generation must sell approximately 1.5 million copies to break even? This is probably more than you can reveal?
