I remember when I was 13, my mom had us move about 5 times in a year.

My mom said she would get me something for not acting up while she screwed up my life (my thoughts at the time)

I asked for an N64 with goldeneye.

It ended up costing 300$+ with an extra controller and mem card, I'm pretty sure.

If she had come home with something I didn't want because it was cheaper, or if she was under the impression I didn't know any better. I would've been very very upset to say the least.

The sin that you committed is this. Most adults don't know shit about gaming. You asked this man to make a decision for the kids, on gaming that the kids will be doing, based on how much it will save him.

"Based on video game demographics, women make up a significant 39% of those who play video games in the population. Also, a surprising 40% of online gamers are women. 35% are below eighteen years old. And based on studies, the people who regularly play video games are in the 18 to 34 year old age group."  http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Demographics-of-Video-Game-Players&id=1111304
