The aurora feint 3 guys already did it. A free app where you have to BUY new lives. A boycott is in order!
I think they have made some $ because they had 2 super successful prequels.
I don't think it'll fly for the average game though - the Istore has "set the pricing bar" very low For "what An App SHOULD cost"
I remember the arcade days too! But we are in some cases dealing with lol kids who don't, Or have never had to pay much for anything except clothes and star-ucks ha ha And for that, they will pay through the nose, go figure.
What is the value of something? We think about that a lot in the Art biz also

"Here's an arcade game - have five lives with your initial purchase. Oh? What's that? You've lost all your lives and can't play the game anymore? $0.99 for five more lives please. Or you could buy 15 lives for $1.99!"
We're still divided as to whether we'd be genius entrepreneurs or the biggest assholes in history. I think it's a very fine line these days

You know, it's all research for my Wishstone Saga game... or so I justify myself.
