Oh I assumed that sellers were jacking up the price.

Let me change the question. Why would anyone pay $100 when the game is far far cheaper on 9 other devices?

why would anyone pay $300 for the NES Mini if emulating the games is much cheaper?

 

People don't have logic

To be fair, a lot of people don't support emulation, even if it's of games that are no longer sold in a capacity that benefit anybody but third parties, and at ridiculously high prices for more coveted releases that nobody should have to pay simply to try a 30 year old game. I get not supporting piracy, but at a certain point, you have to question what you're against: is it a fight against those that would prevent a company from profiting, or is it a defense of IP no matter the circumstances surrounding the item (no longer in production, limited runs, etc.)?

That conversation is neither here nor there though. Best to keep this topic about Minecraft: Story Mode's Wii U release.
