I think the problem is the handheld games are approching nextgen consoles in quality. Obviously they still have a ways to go to even catch up to now, and before long the next consoles will be out. But...anyway it costs more to make these games, and i saw them all priced at 40.00 Except for spiderman 2. That one was 50.00. So really for the most part it's 10 more bucks for a game i'd personaly rather have. As apposed to games i'd feel bad about spending any money on at all.

$50 a pop is still a lot for a video game. With all the money they are making in profit, I see little reason for it to go any higher. For $70 the game better be perfect with no glitches, and top quality.
FF3 was an exception, most games were $50. Now they make "special editions" of games with extras you'll never use....just gimme the damn game. :)

When i had sega genesis i remeber the games being a good 60-80 dollars. in retrospect that seems outrageous. At the time i don't think i noticed though.

Yah, games once cost even more than they do now, so thank your lucky stars they haven't gone the way of gasoline! 3.019 dollars per minute of gameplay! Can you imagine how much RPGs would cost!? :shock:

That's a great idea. Only thing is... Is that legal?

If someone says I'll make it legal, I'll have an instant orgasm.

If they accept xerox copies then it is legal. If they didn't want people to give them xerox copies they wouldn't accept them, riiiiiiiight? Is that enough rationalization yet? :)
