Ok let me Sheldon it for you: Yes, deals existed “back in the day” as the saying goes, but fans weren’t aware of or reactive to the business aspects of gaming enough for the deals to be the subject of headlines.
I wasn’t disagreeing with you, just pointing out your example was a bit wild. I fully agree with your other point. Although I would also point out that the early exclusives were that simply because it just didn’t occur to devs to release a game on more than one console.
