Increased resolution has been the trend for a bit now even in these competitive games.

This is what I call "what America literally voted for".
Trump supporter too more than likely.
His Facebook page suggests he also has an affinity for hunting and Mississippi State University football, and opposed vaccine mandates in 2021.
No sympathy here at all.
I considered myself a Democrat, because that all they was really, until progressives really started coming around two decades ago.
Downvoted because this is a day late and a 2024 short for this clueless, sorry excuse for a journalist.
Dude, we can't get the majority of Americans to say civil rights are basic human rights after 60 years.
Speak to Americans at their level man.
These assholes are so scared of losing power and corporate money they're willing to drop fucking dead on the floor of Congress rather than let the new generation take over.
Fuck these boomer assholes.
A whole week isn't what I would call a "very limited time" but at the same time, best of luck to them.
And let's take this outside of the myopic view of only looking at inflation.

Console gaming revenue: 1996 - 7 billion, 2022 - 30 billion
Let's look at specifically Nintendo here since we're talking about Super Mario 64
https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2001/011121e.pdf
2001, 664 million in profit, adjusted for inflation in 2022 dollars, 1 billion.
2022, 1.7 billion dollars in profit.
You forget that in 1996 the gaming pool was also magnitudes smaller compared to today and despite all of the whining about increased development costs, which I also think is bullshit but that's a different conversation, profits have increased to keep up.
So my opinion, no there's absolutely no justification for a 80 dollar price point when you look at the over all picture.

I mean honestly, yeah. With a simple 4BG chip they could have been won the low end and not screwed over gamers.
They've really seemed to have forgotten their roots with the GPU market, which is a damn shame.
