I miss the days when you only had 3 days to beat a game because it was rented. |

God, that brings back memories. My uncle wanted one for Wild Gunman. We probably mail ordered it half a dozen times, just to get a voided check back months later. Frankly I'd have to touch one before I believed they actually existed. |

Now that it's done let me explain why I was right. --- End quote --- Fallout? I don't feel that rebuking your false claim with hard evidence is "Fallout" Again, its really easy to say games were $70 when you don't have to prove it. Here, I found an ad for a couple of SNES games at $70 NBA Hangtim, Alpha 2, and Ultimate MK3 at $70. Donkey Kong Country 3, Marvel Super Heroes:War of the Gems, and even Madden 97 were all 60. Love this ad because its got the original donkey kong country in the SNES, DKC2 for sale with a coupon, and DKC3 full price, all on the same page. UMK3 at $70 was such an odd price point since UMK3 on Saturn was $60 and MKT on PSX was $50 citation: http://www.rsvlts.com/2016/12/01/tbt-with-the-1996-toys-r-us-video-game-catalog/ This ad is too big to embed http://www.platypuscomix.net/fpo/newspaper/31389toysrus1.JPG but it shows ---smurfing--- Atari games for sale side by side with the NES games and nothing is over $45 let alone $70. Side note, LOVE the revolver style NES zapper. Could never sell that nowadays. You getting price gouged at Uncle Bob's House of Video games because you didn't have a Sears or Toy's R Us within 100 miles doesnt mean that NES games were $70 or SNES games were $80. It just means YOU paid that much, not everybody. --- End quote --- I'm talking about nes prices. You post snes prices, which btw are around the average that I just pointed out. Are you related to Donald Trump or something? Just for the record, I bought my games at regular retail places like Hills, Kmart, K&B ect. Also I don't need proof, this isn't a court hearing. I said it was so and thus it was. Feel free to not believe me, but I'm not wasting my time scouring the net to look up old game ads. You have fun though. |
