It's easier than ever for anyone to publish games. Not the old days anymore when a few publishers controlled the market of who could and couldn't sell and would get promoted or not. More competion is going to drive down prices. Being able to charge high prices is more a luxury that would have been possible back in the past when consoles ruled supreme as opposed now with barrier to entry having gotten so low.
