| Pretendo said: Yeah, games don't seem to be really affected by inflation. Weren't most NES games $30 to $40 tho? |
Trust me. I had to save for weeks to buy my first Nes game. It was $49. When I finally started seeing games for $19 (much older games), I couldn't believe it! But yeah. Nes games were $50. Gameboy games were $30. I even have some really old magazines that I could dig out of my closet from the late 80's and early 90's, if I have to.
*edit* Since I'm getting old, I figured I needed to google old Nes sale pages to make sure memory served me correctly. Here's a page from a 1990 Sears catalog: http://www.huguesjohnson.com/features/sears_catalog/sears-catalog-1990-pg1446-NES_full.jpg
