    My point is less about me giving more money (I’m not that crazy about giving more money). My point was more about being curious about the reasons and decision of going this low. It’s more of a curiosity how much they could ask, before its too high. They don’t need spend money on advertisement, that’s for sure. Maybe this whole waiting saga is part of their “self advertising strategy” (just made up this terminology).

      Lower price does not automatically equate to less profits.

      Lower price usually means more sales. More sales means more profit.

      Things have an optimal market price at which they’d make the most profit, and it’s possible they did some calculations and decided $20 was it for this game.
