| adajio said: How could you afford 750 games for one system? Although, I don't know how they were priced back then (I've grown up in the $50 a game era), so perhaps they were more affordable. 750 games * $50 = $37,500 |
I got the vast majority of them at a time when most NES games were going for between $1 and $5. You could get lots off eBay at that time for less than $1 per game. It was great. Even back when GameStop was called FuncoLand, they sold NES games for anywhere from $0.09 for SMB/Duck Hunt to $30 for some of the rare ones, but a lot of them from $0.50 to $5. Good times. There are only a few more I need to track down for a full set, but those are pretty hard to find for the most part and, unfortunately for me (being cheap), expensive!
But no way in hell I'd spend $37,500, that's crazy. That is house downpayment money, not video game money.
