Delisting XBLA titles is a bad move…

Microsoft's recent announcement of delisting XBLA titles has surprised some people in the industry but the staff at Married Gamer thinks it is a matter of simple economics even though MS seems to be skipping a step...

1 - M$ is all about the $$
M$ should lower the cost of ALOT of those XBLA games, and I'm sure more people would make those "impulse" purchases. $12+ for a pinball game with like 2 different tables? then charge me for each additional table? no thanks. I bought a pinball game for my wii with 10+ classic machines that were actually in arcades for $20. Most of the games on XBLA are either some kind of puzzle game or "re-done" old '80's arcade game for $10 a piece. Sorry M$, but most of those puzzle games are either free or $1 or $2 and I have complete complilations of the old '80s classics a generation ago so why should I pay $10 a piece again because its in "HD"? NOT. Geo wars, assault heroes, mutant storm, outpost kaloki x, etc, are fun and I show that by buying such a fun original title. M$ should actually rip a page out of SONY's book and put certain titles on "sale" at certain times to get those "impulse" buys. M$ is all about fast cash and it shows. Charging for themes, pics, etc. its all about nickle and dimeing you. $8-$10 for 3 maps for every shooter that comes out? give me a break. please.
