    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    If your games don't sell or generate any interest, they are too expensive.
    Lower your prices to generate more interest.
    That's the magic formula.

    Thats pretty much it. But then, I wouldn't expect anyone that does this for a living to actually divulge any "real" secrets. Taken me 35 years to learn the business. You can't learn it over night, and because each client is different, there is not a one catch all way to success. And the business is constantly changing. Track prices on games a year ago to now! Unless you are going to do this full time and are willing to spend a few years paying your dues, and learning from your mistakes but still not giving up, you should look at this as more of a hobby to help you pay for your own games. That is something most can do with just a little luck finding a few games at amazing prices, and a willingness to make them play and look awesome. In the end, what the quoted poster said is some very good simple advice. Good luck....it can be lots of fun. And one last thing....don't just do it for the money or you won't be successful. You have to love it. Then, no matter what, it will be a rewarding journey.
