Tropical Freeze was very likely, very profitable on the WiiU.

I know, i'm being sarcastic. 

I don't like the idea that "if anyone pays $60 for a 2D plafromer they deserve to lose money". I think games like Rayman Legends 2 or Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze 2 would be worth the money, probably. That being said, I don't think the consumer should be blamed for a poor choice in price on the publisher's end. I kind of doubt it will be 60$, but if it is, I do think that's a bit of a rip. 

I said if anyone spends sixty million dollars.

Meaning:
If Nintendo spent 60 million developing the game, they really shouldn't expect it to make its money back.

Only a mainline Mario could justifiably have a 60m budget.
Even then, it would probably hard to reach the 60m mark, and end up with a product that reflects the budget.
