Comparison of 1996 game and console prices to today.

Your bringing in other factors again. Doesn't matter how much a pop costs or whatever else.

We are talking solely video game consoles.

I can tell you 10 years ago i did not feel like I was getting paid good at $10 an hour. It was shit pay. It is still shit pay today.

But doesn't matter again whether it was good pay back then or good pay now, or bad pay then or now. What matters is that the average pay for the age demographic of 16-22 has been $10/hr for 20 years.

Meanwhile the cost of consoles or gaming in general has increased by a fair amount in that time.

It doesn't matter how many pops a kid could buy 20 years ago, this is about video games. A post was shown before that was written very well on how horribile inflation arguments are. In that argument there was one point talked about and that was the industry relativity. EVERYTHING technology wise has decreased by a fair amoutn over the years (except Apple, jk, even those rediculous prices are cheaper than before) but the video game sector has not only NOT decreased but increased in most all areas.
