They were luxury items thats why so many went to rental stores instead of buying games.

We also had video games that came with our McDonald's happy meals lol. I guess VHS tapes were luxury items then too.

Mc has nothing to do with it.  Anyway yes games and even movies were seen as a luxury items, at the beginning you had to spend a lot for a movie on VHS,

Rental stores were the answer and was widely used,  It is the popularity of Rental stores that pushed companies to lower the prices to 25$ ish for movies.
