I just paid $50 for Zelda Spirit Tracks on the DS. Cartridge only. Cheap older games are a blessing.

Well it's only $60 for the CIB version. You can thank Gamestop for tossing out DS cases for the rise in DS game prices. Those should all be just as cheap as PS2, since DS sold about as many units as PS2.

PC is the greatest game system ever made because its games are so cheap, yet so good!

Thousands of games of the PS1 - PS3 era for $1 - $5 on GOG, Steam; crazy sales for a few cents.

Humble bundles, Fanatical bundles, IndieGala bundles, Itch.io bundles, monthly Amazon Prime and Humble Choice games...

Weekly free games in the Epic Games Store, sometimes free games on Steam or EA Origin or the UbiStore.

Playing many older games in much higher resolutions, with better textures and maxed out effects and/or higher fps without paying again for lazy remasters.

You are missing the point of this thread. From a collector's standpoint physical PS2 games are cheap and easy to get. Other retro systems can get expensive tracking down physical games. I'm celebrating how affordable CIB physical PS2 games are.

PC doesn't apply to this thread because of the non-physicality of PC games.

Unless of course you want to show me that good CIB PC games from 2010 and earlier can be found for cheap, with working product keys. But I'm sure your definition of good and my definition of good are two different things.

You didn't want to discuss anything in this thread anyway. You just wanted to come in and regurgitate some tired old PC Master Race talking points. Nevermind that I have a kickass rig myself, and you are basically preaching to the choir here. I'm PC/Switch only this gen.
