Can you explain this?

if they tried to make games cost 200~ nobody would fucking buy them

farmers are evil?

I wouldnt spend so much on food if I didn't have to eat.
I sure as shit ain't spending 70 bucks on a video game.
Both are too expensive, one is mandatory.

>>513915155
you wouldn't buy them you mean, $200 for potentially 1000s of hours of entertainment is still good deal

>>513915154 (OP)
meat is becoming a niche product

>>513915154 (OP)
To meet the rising demand for beef farmers have to raise more cows, which is difficult and costly; but to meet the demand for a video game developers just need to print more copies which is trivial and cheap.

fuck off paradox

>>513915154 (OP)
There is a market for beef that is $10 a pound, there isn't a market for $300 games

>>513915157
Same. Eating is overrated.
If it wasn't mandatory, I would rarely eat at all.

Ground beef is still ground beef.

Newer game cut on manufacturing. No disk, no plastic casing, no needing to print a 20 page full color instruction booklet, no paying a quality control team, and no need for a marketing budget because a single intern can spam the entire internet.

>people are willing to pay inflated prices for literally everything besides video games
Grim. And deserved desu

>>513915154 (OP)
Where in the fuck are people buying ground beef for $10 a pound? Are they genuinely stupid?

>>513915154 (OP)
Now post DLC, micro transactions, subscriptions, deluxe editions

>>513915154 (OP)

The market is saturated and creatively stagnant. There's too many games and entertainment options competing with new games. Also games are digital now, how the fuck do you justify paying $70 for a digital product? Only numale fanboys pay full release prices.

I can get that for free

>>513915154 (OP)
How many times are you going to post this?
I can't tell if you niggas are doing it as Nintendo marketers or if you're pretending to be.
One of these times I'm just gonna make some shit copypasta just to drop into these threads whenever they pop up, explaining why that image is stupid as fuck.

>>513915154 (OP)
The fact that you feel the need to ask this question is proof you don't understand the video game industry

you did this thread yesterday
stop disguising your /biz/ thread as video games to attract bullshit discussion from armchair economists and fuck off

>>513915154 (OP)
The market is larger so they can sell more games while keeping the price mostly the same

>>513915172
>Wal-mart 73/27
Might as well season it with plastic flakes

>>513915173
You'll get it tomorrow too don't worry

>>513915166
Probably higher quality lean and grass fed organic bullshit. But still, the average price is $6/lb and that's still pretty bad.

Elections have consequences.

when are we getting sky beef?

>>513915154 (OP)
ground beef is better than video games

>>513915180
i'm holding out for underground beef

>le micro plastics are le bad for you le argument
grow up, idiot

even NES games with zero animated graphics were $$$

Fucking jannies.

>tranny mod moves a /v/ thread to /pol/ because it affects its sensibilities
Sad, many such cases

paperback books, DVDs, and board games should be hundreds of dollars because they give hours and hours of entertainment, goy!

>>513915154 (OP)
I want to go back.

>>513915154 (OP)
The game is relatively cheaper todaybecause you don't own it. You're spending $70 for permission to play their game.

It's a blast from the past

I like when a thread that belongs in /tv/ gets posted on /pol/ but jannies can't move it to /tv/ because of all the usage of nigger or kike

>average price is $6/lb and that's still pretty bad.
It's getting pretty close to the grocery store being no cheaper than happy hour specials. $2.29 for a 22 oz draft and $9 burger plates near me
