Console prices
non inflated prices of the video game consoles since 1976.
those same prices adjusted for inflation
Sure, ps3 doesnt look too expensive now, but, look at the two most expensive ones, Neo Geo, and 3DO, do you see those consoles anymore, or even the companies?

Personally, I don’t buy that. Yeah some of the consoles were expensive but honestly, I don’t think inflation would cause that great of a difference.
And anyway using inflation to justify a price now is ridiculous. The chart is only mildly relevant to the SNES/Genesis age in my opinion.

inflation is stupid anyway, thats why there will be no booger economy chris, remember that.
i think it is stupid that they’re using inflation to say that the ps3 isnt too expensive, because $600 is alot, be it today, or yesterday, this year or last year.
