Why can’t these companies just make a simple ps2 like game, and make it in HD or 4k.
That’s like the one thing I think Nintendo does right. With their Splatoon franchise. That’s a good example of a cheaply made modern game that just fits in. Filler you could call it. Except they still want to charge $60 just price each specific game right. But no every game including the ones that don’t sell, and age bad, $60 - $70+
New Super Mario Bros wonder is not worth anything near $60- $70 not saying it’s a bad game btw. But not every new game has to be priced so high strictly because it is a new game. It’s a basic 2d game, more gamers need to call it for what it is or else these companies will keep doing this.
I already had a tough time justifying 60$ full released games. I usually always wait For reviews to ensure that if I drop 60$ on a game, I can justify it as a game I know I’ll enjoy. Or just wait for a price drop or sales.
70$ is too much for me. Any more than that? Honeslty I can’t justify.
Capcom President Says “Only rich people should be able to afford games, because the filthy peasants should spend all their time laboring”
$60 is already pushing it for me, anything more and I’m probably not gonna be buying it. Especially when indie games are cheaper, and I tend to like them more than the AAA $60-or-more games anyway.
Sure charge more for games
And raise everyone’s wages so we can afford them
No earn, only work.
According to this site their CEO made 212 million yen, or about 1.4 million USD, last year, 64% of which were the actual salary. So around 900k USD.
According to PayScale Capcom pays over 80k CAD, or about 60k USD, on average over all professions in Canada, giving a factor of 11 and change for the CEO-to-worker salary ratio.So while their CEO certainly has money to spare, it’s far from the ridiculous ratios we see in some companies. Apparently they also handed out 30% average raises for employees last year.
So definitely not the worst example of a company.
Capcom’s president can suckle my taint.
