  • Inflation is a thing, sure. But we should keep in mind that over the past decade some costs have universally disappeared for video games.

    Publishers no longer have to factor in media production costs, shipping and handling to retailers, or (sometimes) giving retailers a cut.

    Some publishers (like Nintendo and Sony [on PlayStation]) sell direct to the consumer. So there are no retail costs. If you sell on Steam, they take a 30% cut.
