Inflation doesn't say anything should be priced at anything. The company looks at various factors and decides on the cost. They can almost definitely sell these games at $60 and make a profit. I've never seen Nintendo's numbers but they're a multi billion dollar corporation. They would be fine.
Sure, they would be fine, and there are certainly a number of factors their market analysts have considered before deciding that a price raise would maximize profit. Still, the point remains that $80 today is worth $60 in 2014. If it's such a huge problem now why wasn't it a problem 11 years ago?
