Back then there were no microtransactions or dozens DLCs for every game. The sales were also much smaller. Gaming companies make more money now than ever.
Defending huge companies acting against your own interests is so unbelievably dumb.
It’s not as egregious as other games, but sometimes.
8 Deluxe got DLC, but it doubled the size of the game for only $25. That was a really good deal, and it was kind of a special case since they already had the new track models laying around from Tour.
And those snes and NES games had a fraction of the content of a modern game with difficulty and arcade style ilmited lives being the only reason you wouldnt clear it in a few hours.

When you don't understand inflation and the fact that you're not going to buy things today for the same price you paid years ago.
Blaming Nintendo is silly, but easy to do.
