Um... Wow.
With these prices, they better have one hell of a line up besides a Mario Kart that looks about the same and Street Fighter 6.
I'm very interested on how powerful this thing is if it's price is going to be higher than the LCD Steam Deck and $100 less than the OLED model.
Yeah I distinctly remember N64 games being $60 in the late 90s. We saved a lot with digital downloads vs retail over the years but it is funny that games have largely been level in price for 30 years at this point.
$60 was a lot considering PS1 and Dreamcast games were in the $50 range.
According to an online inflation calculator, from 1996 inflation rose 103.4%. So if game prices followed inflation, $50-$60 games should be $100-$120.
