  I have a story. About 30 years ago Sonic & Knuckles was launched for Mega Drive. “I” bought that for 17.000$00 (Portuguese escudos). That roughly translates to 85€ without accounting for inflation.

  So although the price hike is unfortunate, I’m actually surprised the prices of the games remained stable for so long.

  I was afraid of this… I support it but don’t need it. Oh well… Fuck the USA anyway!

  Really? I don’t really remember any game that received updates back when, but I didn’t play diablo.

  No returning customers, due to the nature of the business. It’s dead from the start.
