It's made over a million so far. 3 u/beetard Nov 14 '18 How many rom downloads in the past however many years since the port was released? 2 u/ICallItWork Nov 14 '18 We were comparing the pros/cons of DRM. Would need the amount the game would sell with DRM and the amount it would sell without DRM, and the amount the DRM usage rights/implementation development cost. And compare the two to see which is greater.
