Lmao the original price sticker on the box for insult to injury.

5 years ago this would have been like $30. The jump in price has been insane.

Fuck playing this on original hardware then I guess. Even if I was rich I couldn't justify spending that much on a hunk of plastic. Thank god for emulation.

It just kind of sucks because retro gaming on original hardware used to be something even poor people could do. It used to be if you couldn't afford the new stuff, you'd buy the old stuff. Seems like during COVID people realized they could charge more for nostalgia and then capitalism went brrrrr

    I just buy reproduction carts off Etsy if I really want a physical copy. They're usually about 20 dollars and look just like the original games, just newer. Still, emulating on Wii with a CRT is beyond Goated. Its the most accurate emulation IMO.
