It was difficult for console games to chart back then due to budget home computer games selling for £1.99 or £2.99, compared to new Master System games which were £29.99, and Mega Drive games which were £34.99. If I remember correctly Phantasy Star was actually £39.99 when it released on the Master System back in the 80s! That was partly due to it having battery back up. I find it funny when people complain about the price of games today, taking inflation into account they've come down a in price a lot.
