Gaming - The $10 theory - View Post

Words Of Wisdom said:

Probably not. There is a large number of FPS games available for every system minus the Wii. Unless this particular FPS game was able to do something amazing and unique, there'd be little to no point in picking it up at any price IMO. On the other hand, if it did manage to do something amazing, I don't think price would be a concern.

Essentially, sure you could buy a load of horse crap for $10 but you're still buying horse crap. Price doesn't change the final product.

Plus I personally hate the idea of paying for additional downloadable content later on. The sooner it comes out, the more I feel like the developer cheated me out of something that should have been in the base product and not DLC.


Well, that problem could be diverted rather easily if it was Wii-Ware.

 

So, imo, money is to be made and it's only on Wii-Ware for most small developers. I hear Arcade has a tendency to screw them over, but that's just what I hear around the developer conference hall watercooler. 



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
