Not so much defense, more like "uhh, yeah, things cost money, inflation exists, welcome to the real world", and I can't disagree honestly. People gotta use an inflation calculator on old games.
This meme does have real "too late, I drew you as the soy cuck and myself as the chad!" energy.
Also, comparatively, it’s still one of the cheapest forms of entertainment. You buy a movie ticket and it costs you $25-30 for an hour or two of entertainment. I bought BG3 for $80 and have 400 hours on it (so far) and will very much have more on it. That averages out to 20 cents for an hour of entertainment. Even factoring in a need for a console, $400-500 spread out over thousands of hours ends up being a cheap investment.
I’m not defending Nintendo, they do lots of shady stuff and their controllers are shittily made these days. But the price of games these days isn’t entirely outrageous.
