Yeah, I used this opportunity to buy up all the sealed games I care about. Not exactly 2009 era prices but I got some goos deals Now to wait 5+ years or until golems get their next coof check so I can unload it all.

I’ve noticed it with arcade and pinball prices since the decrease is more obvious there. Stuff is sitting for longer and selling for less. Just need to make some room for it all.

Might be the effects of the WATA fraudery losing its steam and effect on the market, but I doubt it'll be as cheap as it was 20 years ago.
I might spend the money on a few cartridges which I'd just particularly want, but I feel that I should still just get some flashcarts.

It's just packaging. The ROMs are free. Get flash carts and be done with it. You won't, because you don't actually play the games.

I think it's going to slowly deflate for a while until UBI checks drop in a few years then go nuts again.

I don't see the big evergreen franchises and developers becoming less popular

Really? Maybe I should check the price of PSX Psychic Force. (I know it sucks as a game, but I have a sentimental attachment and it's the only game left I want a physical coyy of. But sice it sucks I don't want to pay inflated prices)
