And the thing about price is, people in the 70s were paying $40 for Atari cartridges. Do you have any idea how much money that was? The $40-60 standard has been around for a long time now. In the SNES era some games were cheaper, but really big RPGs could cost as much as $60 and that was more like $120 today.
