So you made an entire thread about your misunderstanding. Game prices didn't increase because of game cards, they increased because game development costs rise. And of course we've had high inflation rates globally for several years.

If your wage grew at the same rate as inflation during the last eight years, then a $70 game today is more affordable than a $60 game was in 2017.

How much did the cartridges cost for NS1 versus NS2? Maybe I have a misunderstanding. I know that cost for development and such have gone up, but my theory is that the cost of the cartridge was what sent Nintendo “over the edge”.

If game cards were the reason, then digital prices would have not been increased.
