I don't play Nintendo hardware as I game on PC, but I paid more for games in the 90s. Street Fighter 2 was $80, and Pilotwings was $60. Adjusted for inflation, that's like $171.63 and $134.79, respectively. I'm not defending Nintendo, but for me, who's been gaming since the 80s, nothing has changed what has is prices for other shit and just more whiny people who have a voice on the internet.
Yeah street fighter 2 on snes is bare bones as shit had to do yard work every week for 5 months for that game. Did 5 over times at my work at 6 hours a shift to afford my 4090 at launch and cost me close to 2 grand also. So for me gaming is more accessible to me now then it ever has been. Honestly I'm a huge fromsoft fan and I'll work like 2 overtimes and pick up a switch 2 when that bloodborn 2 ass looking nintendo exclusive game comes out bought a ps5 to play demon souls remake sold it promptly after I know the drill.
