| RolStoppable said: We are talking about the average Nintendo game, so exceptions to the rule don't necessitate to rewrite the rule. The frequency of releases doesn't really work as an argument because the Pokémon series has been mostly on an annual schedule of main game releases, yet it doesn't go through the same pricing pattern as the annual releases of other publishers. Granted, quality might not be the sole determining factor in all of this, but it's by far the most important one. Games can't maintain initial pricing and consistently good sales without quality. |
I agree that games can't maintain initial pricing and consistently good sales without quality. I also agree that quality is the most determining factor. I just wanted to point out that quality isn't the only determining factor. In your post quality was the only reference point of Nintendo's maintained MSRP, but you clearly don't think it's the only factor at play, so we agree.
@ bolded sentence - Isn't Pokemon an exception to the rule?
