Wasn't Street Fighter 2 Turbo on the SNES something like $90-100 when it released? To be honest, when you take inflation into account, game prices aren't that high these days.

I think I remember my mom buying Super Mario 3 new for me for $45 on NES. And I remember my cousins buying Street Fighter 2 Turbo for SNES for $70 back then.



AceRock owns one PS3, one PS Vita, and one PS4.

Normal price ps2 were 50, normally priced psOne were 40.

I remember getting it at Wal Mart for 69.99. I thought that was way too high, but I NEEDED that game.

I thought just first party stuff was $40. I might be remembering incorrectly though.



I remember that Turok for the N64 was released in 1997 and initially sold for £70 in stores.

I think you are correct.

 




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
