More money going to publishers and developers = more money to develop bigger, better games in the future.
I never noticed how good EA games, Activision games and ubisoft games get better....Oh hang on 90% of their games are annual release of the same crap from the year before.
And last I checked they are the companies trying to get used games gone from the market.
Sorry Foman but its like the music industry and the film industry they cry about needing money but they actually don't.
The gaming industry is bigger than any other in the entertainment business and getting bigger every year, there is no shortage of income.
The problem is publishers and developers don't innovate and want to play it safe, that isn't to do with little money only instead they innovate as little as possible, spend as little as possible and get max profit.You're approaching this from the wrong angle. First, nearly every publisher and developer would like to eradicate used game sales. Not just the big guys, either. If anything, it's more important for the smaller guys who see lower overall sales numbers.
Second, all your statement does is support my point -- used game sales are currently popular, and there is not as much innovation in the market as you'd like.
Third, if you think these big publishers are rolling in cash, I invite you to check out the annual statements of the publicly held companies such as EA and Activision-Blizzard. This is not a high-margin, high-profit business.
Fourth, the goal of any company is to make money and increase value for its owners/shareholders. Saying that a corporation is spending as little as possible and getting max profit is a compliment, because that is exactly what it is supposed to do. If you value innovation and new IPs over anything else, vote with your wallet and stop buying sequels and remakes.
