Capcom's president and chief operating officer has said he thinks game prices should go up.

Haruhiro Tsujimoto made the comments at this year's Tokyo Game Show, Nikkei reported. TGS is sponsored by the Computer Entertainment Supplier's Association, a Japanese organisation which aims to support the Japanese industry, which Tsujimoto is currently the chairman of.

"Personally, I feel that game prices are too low," Tsujimoto said, citing increasing development costs and a need to increase wages.

Many triple A games released this year have featured game breaking bugs on release, that was practically unheard of in pre internet games.

Take off the nostalgia glasses lol. Old games often have just as many bugs

Yes Mario 64 has a lot of glitches, but it's playable all the way through. Similarly superman 64 is notable for being a buggy Ness because it was uncommon. BG3 released with multiple game breaking bugs, same with Stanfield. Payday 3 has several crashing bugs, but nothing gamebreaking beyond overloaded servers.

The difference is magnitude not numbers.

Wow, 3 whole games. Totally representative of most games.
