And this change in attitude is what Nintendo is fearing. They are seeing the value decrease which is why they are so apprehensive in the tablet/smartphone gaming market. I certainly don't see $40 value in many 3DS games now as when the DS first came out. I also don't see $50 value in games like Call of Duty on the Wii. I hope to see $50 or $60 value in Wii-U games but will they still have that value when the PS4 and new Xbox arrive? that's the key question.
Right and gaming is a complex market. So while you don't find value in that, others might and apparently have. Why is it so hard to look outside of your perspective to see that this is no longer a market kept afloat by one very specific group?
