LakeEarth said:I was so dissapointed by the cellphone version. Started out good with the Intellevision title screen, but the game had no hyperspace, no hurricane bombs, no alien diamond things, just fricken astroids.
Its wierd cause it seemed like there was no rhyme or reason to the pricing. I remember paying $59.99 for Mario 64 and Wave Race at/around laungh, but then a month later, KI Gold came out and was like $75
LakeEarth said:Old systems like Intellivision and Coleco were like $300 in the fricken 70's! Today that's like almost a grand.

Paid $99.99 plus tax at TRU for Phantasy Star 4 day of release.
belgurdo said:3D0s were nuts too (a $700 machine that could barely do 3D trying to compete against the Saturn, PS1, and CD-i, all of which were in the $400-300 range then)
DavidDayton said:Sega and Sony attempted to change the price structure for hardware, but were put into check by Nintendo at each opportunity... which does make me glad.
Wasn't the Saturn a $400 system at one point?
