They barely scraped by in 2024 with $1.5 billion in (net) profits, and people expect them to be able to continue to be able to pay their 7,724 employees without raising the price of their games?
I mean, if Nintendo tried to give every employee (including janitors and customer service) a paltry $175,000 annual salary increase, they'd barely have (net) profitted $200,000,000 last year.
People need to grow up, no business can be expected to survive like that!
The saddest part about modern gaming is the developer companies are making huge profits but then they layoff the actual developers that made the game.
God forbid you share the profits with the people most responsible for them. No. We gotta give all that money to the CEO that keeps making bone-headed decisions.

"Money people" on one side and creatives and code wizards on the other. People might wonder how games can bring so much joy, but the gaming industry always seems to have something lined up to try and cram down consumers' throats against their will. Let it be a mystery no longer.
