Good luck getting any of those classics at an affordable price, have you seen what the market looks like?
Good luck getting Switch 2 games at an affordable price.
Sure, the old games used to be cheaper than they are now, but most of them were more expensive back then (accounting for inflation)…and they’re generally cheaper than current-gen console games.
…and they’re generally cheaper than current-gen console games.
The wild thing is that a lot of in-demand titles aren’t. I lost my original copy of Boktai 1 a while back and I’d love to replace it, but take a look for yourself how much that one goes for.
Hence why I said “generally”! I know some games have outrageously crazy prices. But I’d genuinely wager that the majority of retro game titles are cheaper now than they were when they launched, adjusting for inflation.
At least if you forgo the box/paper. I think strong arguments in either direction could be made about whether that’s a fair comparison.

This reminds me to test and list the chipped PS2 in my garage for sale.
