Games were more expensive in the 90s, when you take inflation into consideration.
Games now cost 3x as much. My pay hasn't increased 3x. So even with inflation. Games are more expensive now.
Games during the NES/SNES era were $50+. Are you saying games now cost $150+ dollars? Or are you just in a region where inflation/currency has made prices shift more than in the US?
