To a certain extent the Neo Geo's $650 price tag was (probably) far more reasonable than a $1200 console would be today ...
My father regularly talks about how the first computer he bought my family cost more than $5000 and (with inflation taken into account) that is close to $10,000 in today's dollars. A $600 console almost seems reasonable in a world where a cheap PC is $2500.
