i didnt say anything about devs, Im talking about publishers. Devs have also closed and been moved around. THQ is the only publisher that went bellyup hard last gen. So no the Western guys are doing ok. Hell UBi just said they were  back to profits while Capcom and Sega are still crying

That's kind of akin to the aristocracy going okay while the middle and lower classes starve though.

Not really. how are the devs starving? i mean studios get closed down that doesnt mean they arent absorbed by bigger studios, rebranded or taken somewhere else. If the situation was that dire then it HAS to affect the publishers and since it doesnt seem to be the case with the western guys, the onus has to be on the Japanese publishers. They seem to be the only consistently crying about not making enough
