    Would be interesting to see the stats for revenue by game, price by volume. If someone charges 300 for a game that no one bought. Then it shouldn’t count, hypothetically.

      I work in market research. Data at this level of granularity (price band view) is extremely expensive.

      Around 300K per year and that would also likely only include a few retailers GameStop, BestBuy, Walmart. I don’t remember off the top of my head, but I believe Steam data wouldn’t be included.

      It’s very likely Valve doesn’t share the full dataset with anyone. Maybe partial data with some of their biggest partners.
