It’s been a tried and tested phenomenon that as a device gets older, so does it get cheaper. And you know what happens when the hardware gets cheaper: the software goes cheap, too. Publishing giant, Capcom, concurs with this completely.

It’s been a tried and tested phenomenon that as a device gets older, so does it get cheaper. And you know what happens when the hardware gets cheaper: the software goes cheap, too. Publishing giant, Capcom, concurs with this completely.

In an recent investor Q&A session, Capcom, through their official rep, said: “We believe that further declines in prices of consoles will cause a slow decline in prices of software as well. But we expect to see a rebound in software prices when the next generation of consoles goes on sale.”

The company also addressed the issue of some of the major delays they announced recently. “This was a strategic decision. Capcom uses an approach that combines management and development to reach various decisions. Consequently, we would not decide to postpone the launch of a title for reasons that involve only the game development side of our business.

If you want to maximize value out of your money, maybe you could consider delaying buying games as well. You know, for when it’s much cheaper later on.
