N64 charged $60 for new games in the 90s, gamers should stop complaining less
Because it was a ROM cartridge, lol.
You were basically buying a memory upgrade every time you bought a game. Paying for all the silicon involved, and for it to be soldered together.
Then they moved on to CDs (50 cents) and now downloads (ie free manufacturing/distribution/storage).

We've devalued things significantly over the last 30 years though, from movies to video games to music to TV.
Like, a 14" black-and-white TV used to cost hundreds of dollars. These days you can get an 80" TV for the same price.
Too fucking right things get cheaper.
