| Teeqoz said: I meant if it was multiplat (though honestly I doubt it). And it was really just to illustrate that there are other reasons than just "bias" that decides which platform they release it on. It'll still do great on the PS4, and you also have to consider, a home console game doesn't have to do as much in raw numbers to make as much money. 60$ vs 40$. So a PS4 release "only" needs to sell 2/3 of what a 3DS release needs to make the same amount of money. |
That's not really how it works. Publishers get a % of the sales. But you also have to factor in the fact that handheld games don't even come close to costing the same as AAA console games to develop. Which means they have to actually sell more copies of their console game to break even compared to handheld titles.
