Game prices for the past 30 years haven’t kept pace with inflation.

I recognise the argument that publishers are shifting larger volumes of units now, which has been a factor that has allowed the industry to keep price increases below inflation for the last 30 years.

Wages not being even close to keeping up with inflation (especially housing inflation) is the real issue here, not the $70/$80 video game.

You should be angry at your reduced purchasing power in all of society, not just with the price of Nintendo games.

(Secondary less unpopular opinion, the best games out these days are multiplatform and released at least 5 years ago, buy them for << $80 and wait for sale the new releases, when they too are 5 years old)

    You’re making insanely aggressive personal attacks on me just because I don’t share your view that the sky is falling.

    Nope, you stubbornly wanted to act like I needed to “chill out” after very basically and non-aggressive telling you what your actions would cause, thats why the tone is what it is

    I’m not going to stop to your level and insult you, I’m just going to tell youto chill the fuck out.

    And I’ll point out that telling a chill person to “chill out” is insulting them, dumbass

    Go ahead, keep insisting you’re not 100% in the wrong and haven’t been defensive since your first comment
