Depends entirely on how far back you go and whether you want the physical games or not.

I have a kid who wants all retro stuff for Christmas. Gamecube, SNES, and Wii games are like $100 a pop now.

"But this doesnt apply to all workers. The NLRA doesnt cover certain transportation workers, agricultural laborers, or public employees. Government employees state, local, and federal do not have a right to strike under the federal law.

That said, eight states allow most government employees to strike. Illinois and California, for example, allow teachers to strike. Yet its illegal for police and firefighters to walk off the job in any state."

"The Supreme Court has ruled that companies have a right to hire replacements to keep the business running during the strike. And even when the strike is over, replacement employees have a right to keep their job. All that an employer has to do is guarantee that a striking worker will get first dibs on any job that opens up in the following year. But theres no guarantee that a position will open up.

So getting fired and getting replaced are basically the same thing."

Honestly, at this point they'd be better off recasting Indy so they can go back and do stories in the 30s (or earlier, like the Young Indy series did). Sure, people would complain that it's not Harrison Ford (see also Solo), but the alternative is that people are going to complain about how old he is and how bad the movie is, so it's pretty much a no-win scenario regardless.


They should get the same guy who did Solo to make new Indy Moves. I didn't see solo, so maybe he was awful, but from what I remember he basically got the part because they tried to make him look as much like Harrison Ford as possible.

Even that would be better than what this looks like.
