definitely feels more like a niche collectors piece then a copy you'll use regularly, unlike paying $80 for GTA 6 and just getting a code in a box, there's much cheaper ways to play Sonic 1 if you rather prefer it
it's not a matter of "if" but when, a lot of people are already predicting component costs doubling by the end 2027
the only other thing i'm annoyed by are gamers still acting surprised at announced price hikes as if we weren't warned that...
