!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Wait, what? I just bought my younger brother an n64 with an expansion pack, rumble pack, and Majora's Mask and OoT for Christmas, and all together that only cost 180$. All legit copies and hardware. Made double and triple sure.
Are people just not hitting the "sort lowest to highest" option on auction sites? Or is this a new development in the last few months?
No, it looks like prices have come way down in the past few months. Last time I checked was a year+ ago. My information just wasn't up to date.
Ah, that makes sense. Consoles do tend to spike in price at the height of their nostalgia wave. Probably got boosted up for a while by the rumors of an N64 mini not panning out, and instead being presented with the sub par switch online expansion. Probably created a lot of demand for the real thing.
