Resolved Question: When is Nintendo going to figure out that reducing the price of core / signature games will increase sales?

June 5th, 2010 PSP Reviews No comments
Although i've been a Nintendo fan all my life, the main thing that's annoying me about their Wii marketing strategy is that they have yet to reduce the price of their signature games (Mario Cart, Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Galaxy 1, etc), even though they've been on sale for a year or more. With the PS3 & 360, after a game has been around a year or two, they release a "Greatest Hits" or "Platinum Hits" or "Game Of The Year" edition, and release it at a lower price point than it was (between $20 and $30). I realized this when I was looking through the friday fliers, and saw that the PSP version of Little Big Planet (which was released back in November if i remember correctly), was already labeled a "Greatest Hit" and marked down to $20, when it started around $50. The PS3 version is down to $30. And yet, on the Nintendo section, Mario Cart Wii was still $60, a year and a bit after release. None of the other signature software had been reduced any either, and were still being sold at launch price. So is Nintendo being greedy, or have sales slowed down so much that they can't financially afford to release a reduced price best seller edition of the game? or do they even have any titles on the Wii considered "best sellers"?
