The common joke is that corporate shills will use the fact that games used to cost the equivalent of about $100(give or take) to say it's alright for a brand to raise the price of a game to an uncomfortably high price for current day.

Oh, well then itā€™s good that itā€™s priced at about 55% of the cost of an NES game was 40 years ago.

Iā€™m trying to imagine what a moron you have to be to use a thought terminating cliche like ā€œcorporate shill,ā€ to negate arguments that counter your really bad point. You have to be such a toddler to just paint strangers are your thought enemy because your argument doesnā€™t hold water. You would have been an amazing Nazi accountant.

Wow, that escalated quickly.... You seem like you're a really smart and well adjusted person, just judging by how fast you pulled the Nazi type cards after getting into a minor argument on the internet.

Sorry, did your bullshit argument go off the rails immediately because nominal price increase is EXACTLY how youā€™d determine if this game is overpriced. Itā€™s not, but you canā€™t handle simple reality.

Look, we can sit here all day with me saying $80 is too much for a plumber in a go-kart and you comparing the price of modern games to games from 40 years ago, but I would rather do something like taking a walk, hanging out with people I like, getting groceries, feeding my cats, getting some housework done, and just generally enjoying my life . I hope you have a wonderful day and find something that genuinely brings you joy and helps you improve both the world and yourself even just a tiny bit. :)
