The supply of those specific games is infinite. We're talking about the prices of certain games (old ones), not all games that are being released now. I do agree that it makes sense to Nintendo to sell the old games at a high price, but I think supply and demand is probably the wrong phrase. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca -4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I'm talking about supply AND demand. If there is infinite supply and zero demand, there would be no point to rerelease these titles. Or they'd bring the price down. This is basic knowledge. If they can get that price for it, they will keep selling it for that price. It's not rocket science. I'm not defending the price, I've bought plenty and felt dirty doing so lol. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago I'm not defending the price, I've bought plenty and felt dirty doing so lol.

I never imagined buying one at any point in my life. I will buy a steamdeck as soon as it launches in my country. permalink fedilink source parent
