Kirby Triple Deluxe and Super Smash Bros didn't happen while the development of Rainbow Curse was done? Were are no unannounced titles HAL is preparing now?

Again, I do not say that RC was less expensive than your guesstimate suggests. I think it is quite possible that it did cost more and this makes RC unprofitable. But I did such guesstimates a lot in my work, and they are a useful tool. But in the end it relies on a lot of assumptions. The point that irritates me is, that you suggests this quick calculation has no bigger assumptions and totally works as a lower bound on the costs of the project.

I don't think this discussion leads anywhere though. I articulated my problems with the simple guesstimate, you stand by saying it is a solid fact, so it would be best to leave it be. In the end I think we agree that the Rainbow Curse probably is no financial success. Only that I'm less convinced that I know the truth than you are.

Feel free to show me where i stated it was a fact, infact I have stated the opposite multiple times in the thread, stating it was a rough estimate.
