Not entirely true as some games like Chrono Trigger were sold at prices well above a few cents some were and still are sold at more than what newly released games are. Most of the most sort after games would cost you more than the 20 quid a year to play them all.

Not only are there are isolated cases in literally everything, but all of those cases are due to scarcity, an issue that doesn't exist in the digital market place. Chrono Trigger, the digital game, is worth pennies if anything at all. Most of the sought after games, digitally, would be worth a dollar or two put together period, if that if we're just talking about NES/SNES games.

You didn't really debunk anything here as my point still stands as the are a significant number of games that cost way more than pennies if you try to go out and purchase them even games that aren't rare. SMB3 on NES and GBA for example cost 6 quid on ebay which is more than a quarter of the 20 quid subscription, your they'll only cost this digitally claim is nothing more than your own assumption at this point, I can easily think of over 30 games on NES and SNES that I'd like to play again and under your dollar or two argument if we were to take it at face value would cost me more than the 20 quid subscription.
