I was specifically referring to retro games and stuff like Virtual Console, not normal new titles. Look at Earthbound - it's $8 on VC or equivalent to less than $4 on the SNES Classic, but original cartridges go for over $150. Most examples aren't that extreme, but even for common games, the VC is usually at most still half the price of a cartridge. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
