I stand corrected, thanks for the nostalgia
In fairness that looks quite late on in the lifecycle of PS1.
I remember games coming down in price later on, like they were around £45 and came down to about £30 for new ones.
I remember the greatest hits (green sidebar label) ones being about $25-30
Yeah, they were called Platinum over here. £20 each. Ideal for a younger me, who could never justify full price games and frankly wanted to play the older ones first anyway.
I think “around $60” is still accurate. They’re above $50, and they still say that’s the price “*after coupon”.
