Which will greatly reduce their revenue to invest in more games. Its just a bad business decision. With Konami, Epic and Ubisoft etc they will no longer be top dogs and will have the developers who do make quality games for the wii take over their spot in the gaming world. |
Gears of war 1 only cost $10million to make if you take out the engine development costs. Gears of war 2 will probably only cost the same.
So $20million development + $40 million marketing (both games) = $60million.
10million games sales at $30 for the developer = $300million.
I think they are doing fine where they are.
Tease.
