I bought Final Fantasy 2 for the SNES for $60 around 1993. The same game was recast as FF 4 for Playstation, and I paid about $40 for it in 2001-ish. Just saw it as an app for the iPad for $15.
^I played it for free by emulator. Deflation, what.
Newbies…
When I was a kid, inflation got up to 80% a month, but it varied wildly month by month (usually going up). When we discussed the price of things, our unofficial currency was sodas. The Spiderman comic was about 3 sodas or so. A 5 soda comic would be expensive, but nobody cared about the price in actual currency.
Supermarkets updated their prices every day. Workers used to spend their entire salary on groceries a few minutes after they were paid.
You don’t wanna mess with inflation.
On more current news, the PS4 arrived here for about 1800 USD. A gallon of gas (3.8 liters) goes for a little above 5 dollars, even with the government doing gimmicks to avoid price increases. A new Camaro goes for almost 100k USD.
“Back in my day, a dime bag used to cost a dime. You know how much condoms used to cost? Neither do I, I never used 'em”
man you cool as shit mister.
Now Turd knows my deep source of inner hurt: video games no longer cost a quarter.
