Nintendo 64 games cost like $60-$80 back in the late 90s.

Indeed… and I never understood the comments against prices set for monetary support calculated for the time and work and effort done for a mirracle to share and support in hope…

Yeah fair it is arbitrary, but the line in the sand must be drawn somewhere. So coming from PC platform and 59,99 being the agreed upon number for probably decade or more is a good enough arbitrary point to use as a line in the sand.

The perceived value back then was not having to pluck down 25c every time you played at the arcade. So even if the price was high it seemed cheap in the long run.

they also didn’t sell nearly as many copies.
