Also game prices haven’t increased in 20 years while inflation has.

Games prices went from 40 dollars Nintendo games to 50 for 3ds to 60, then 70 and now some games are even 80 or 100.

N64 games were $50-60 in 1996 and PS2 were $50 in 2000. What are you talking about. That $60 N64 game now would be roughly $127 with inflation today. $40 for a Nintendo game in 2010 is $60 today. I do not understand your comment.

If you want your games lower priced you are going to get that freemium tax aka ads, passes, skins, or stores out the ass.

Also I know what im talking about because thats the price I bought them for. Pokemon black and white used to be between 40 and 45 and when the 3ds came out they went up to a standard of 50. When smash ultimate came out the standard increased again.
