My sarcasm detector is off the charts.

Not all wii games have long legs though

Ha ha ha ha ha.

Try not to use the Wii Fit example for any other game than Wii Fit.

If you seriously think other games on the Wii are going to follow the same trend like clockwork, you need to take off the fanboy goggles.

And it's actually games like Conduit that stand greater odds of fading into obscurity as time goes on once the buzz is gone if there's no active effort by the limited number of buyers to play the role of evangelist for the game.

About the only newsworthy thing about it may well be its continued underwhelming performance at retail.

You need to convince them that FPS shooters like the Conduit are a natural progression from their Wii Bowling tournies and get them to buy a copy.

You know, good sarcasm doesn't need /sarcasm in the endo to be understood as it.

So, try harder next time...

huh I don't trust these numbers

the costs of developing games for the next-generation of consoles such as Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3 is estimated to be roughly $10 million as compared to $3-$5 million for the Xbox, PlayStation 2 and GameCube. The exact licensing fee varies based on the manufacturer (Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft), as well as any deals they may give a publisher, but it can generally be anywhere from $3 to $10 per unit. Wholesalers typically pay around $30 per game and with the costs of getting the goods to the wholesalers, any co-op advertising or marketing, and return of good contingencies being roughly $14 per game, the publisher is going to typically get $16 for every unit sold

Leading on from this, an Ubisoft executive gave a breakdown of the company's average development costs per game - with a DS title costing between 500,000 to 1,000,000 euros ($785,000-$1.57m), PS3/Xbox 360/PC titles averaging 12 million to 18 million euros ($18.8m-$28.2m) to create for all 3 SKUs, and a Wii game expected to cost 5 million to 6 million euros ($7.8-$9m) to develop

And when the costs of translating games to multiple formats and marketing them are included, expenses may reach as high as $50 million to $60 million, software executives said.^[9] Valve's spent $10 million marketing Left 4 Dead

It took $5 to $10 million to develop a PS2 game versus $800,000 to $1.7 million for the original PlayStation

"the costs of developing games for the next-generation of consoles such as Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3 is estimated to be roughly $10 million as compared to $3-$5 million for the Xbox, PlayStation 2 and GameCube"

"It took $5 to $10 million to develop a PS2 game "

Uh.... yup.

I thought it was pretty funny.
