Low Sales, high prices.

The Downfall, and current-day
On October 30th, 1985, Pixel Studios announced that they would be retiring from the market for a later date. Here is what was said at the press conference: ''Don't worry, the PixelCube and all of it's variants will stay in production. Development kits are being given away free at our headquarters here in LA, so if you're interested just head on down to the LA HQ.'' -Evan Havvid ''We're not gaining much cash from our games, or from the PixelCube, actually hardly enough to keep them in production. Bio-hazard, our only title, will go for 75% off at any stores selling. The PixelCube will go for 25% off. They will stay in active manufacturing until either: A) Sales plummet to 0 B) We aren't getting enough money to continuously manufacture them anymore It is up to any game developers/store owners if they would like to sell games that are manufactured after what we're titling, the downfall of Pixel Studios. Maye we'll rejoin in the 2000's, when technical innovation could be at it's peak. Maybe.'' Development kits were given for free, and Pixel Studios, Evan Havvid, or any of the workers in that matter, have not been heard of since the incident. Buddy Bear's Toyland was the first game to be announced to be ported to the Pixel Cube.
