In any case - developer is last limk in a royalties chain, so publisher will definetly get money he invested with a reasonable (100-200%) margin.
Game business is risky one, so marging should be bigger than that to allow developer to get his royalty - but it is already OK for us to make sure someone (this publisher or other) would like to publish our game.

And there is PSN/XBL in the end.
You and your team should get paid for being the best developer. I never seen devs stay in contact with fans and explain things like your team does. Big Thumbs Up
