Sorry, but this is a myth. Inflation doesn't factor into it. Gaming was cheaper, both to create and to buy, back in the 80s. Gaming HAS gotten more expensive, as it's gotten more mainstream, as that audience has grown, as gaming budgets have ballooned, and it won't stop until it bursts, and people start making smaller, more intimate VIDEO GAMES again, instead of trying to compete with big budget Hollywood films, which has always been a short-sighted, retarded approach.
I know this, I remember this, because I could afford gaming more as a kid, than I can now as a working adult.
