I wonder how much wii fit and the balance board made?

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Shenmue should be near the top of this list. It cost more to make then majority of the games on that list.

Not on the list of expensive games.

Only on the list of games that made a shit ton of money.
