      How many games were released annually 20 to 30 years ago vs today?

        Huh? What does this has to do with game prices? More games being released doesnt change the develepmont cost of a single game (it might even make it cost less because you could share assets, functions, animations etc between different games). But selling more games = more income directly since you don’t even have release those games physically anymore.

          Total sales / total releases = average sales per release
