True, but the reason for this is not piracy, rather game
publishers ripping off both game
developers and gamers. (Just like, in general, merchants ripping off producers and consumers, between which they managed to wedge themselves very firmly in the last few centuries.) Game developers get about 1-2% of the retail price, 5% is an extremely high percentage e.g. given to the
internal game developer team at Sega.
(Off-topic but I couldn't resist.)
