When they are shopping for bread, they also are confronted with higher prices due to inflation:

Did people stop buying bread?

OK, this is ridiculous. While I think ignoring inflation is wrong, you can't compare bread with a luxury item like video game consoles. People need to buy bread, even if they can't afford luxury. In fact increasing prices on basic items like food might cut short expenses for luxury.

Didn't you see the smiley? It was a joke and a reaction to "Well, guess what, people don't give a bread about how consoles cost 20 years ago." and "Who the hell gives a bread about the inflation when they go shopping ?"

No, I'm comparing consoles not to food or other life necessary things, but to other luxory/entertainment price developments over the last decades.
