Only because your comparison is invalid. If you sold 5 for $6 each to make $30 overall, you make less money than selling one for $30 because it still cost you the same amount to manufacture each copy of the game.
It's just desperation, presumably sales have been so low on the US release (because everyone knew that the game was a turkey) that they're just hoping to attract bargain-bucket sales. "How bad could it be?"
