Just for fun I ran the Mario 3 release price through the Bureau of Labor and Statistics inflation calculator and it came back with $127 today for what 50 bucks was worth in 1990.
I’m not saying $100 for Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 is good and correct but I will say I always find people wanking on about game prices to be a bit short sighted. Gamers are the most spoiled price point consumers on the planet.
I would argue that it’s not forever, but just to term.
I can only imagine what being cooped up for that long under ‘special circumstances’ must be like, I definitely don’t have a great record on sitting put when I should.
And I only say this as a sort of reverse Devil’s advocate with full respect that you can and maybe should ignore me. I’m just here cuz it’s on the internet and seems to be inviting comment, but there are people who like to say ‘there’s actually only a 50:50 chance for anything, either it happens or it doesn’t’, I think these people start living very conservatively after the hospital stay. Statistics are real and you can game them comfortably.
