Retro game prices have been inflated by speculative outsiders (YouTubers and TikTokers pushing a lucrative agenda) and speculative collectors (morons who believe those YouTubers and TikTokers), basically creating a Logan Paul [1] effect. The difference with retro games is that, unlike scarce physical assets, the actual games are effectively free to access: you can play ROMs and ISOs on real hardware for virtually every platform. The solution? Buy nothing for three to five years. The market will become oversupplied, prices will fall, and speculative "investors" will eventually panic-sell.[1] https://youtu.be/W2x-UQpiARc
Wow if only we could play these games on the computerfor freewithout the shitty hardware limitations of the consoles they are shackled tothe horrorthe only way this affects me is not being able to sell my old games I kept in pristine condition because my sub-monkey IQ parents forced me sell them for basically nothing decades ago and threw/gave away other stuff that's worth thousands nowadays but kept literal garbage.

>>12766923>zoomers to learn emulationThese LOCUSTS need to be chased with burning pitchforks anytime they come near to something of value

>>12767078>just wait for someone else to spend 3 years of their free time archiving all of the data that is partially unobtainable anymore
>>12766313I have everything in that picture except captain commando.
>>12767084Surely they wouldn't go after microcomputer disk/tape images, right?
>>12767096Only anus drives will survive
>>12767084two more weeks and the west collapses bro trust the plan
>>12767132>t. boiling frogoy

>>12767189give it a rest incel. i've been hearing your kind's failed underbaked prognostications for over a decade now
>>12766376You do care because you replied.
>>12766313what does this mean for emulation?
>>12767202What does being vaxxiecattle have to do with the topic at hand? Literally more obnoxious than vegan cyclists.
Old things are collectible and become more valuable overtime. This isn't 2002 where the games are all less than a decade old. NES games are 40 years old at this point. SNES games are 35 years old. PS2 games are 25. Prices aren't going to come down, and that's fine. Just emulate.
>>12766313Sounds like a great time to sell off your games and join the retroid pocket nova master race
>>12766313go be poor somewhere else
>it's another false flagging, concern trolling thread
Just keep your stuff
>>12767926playing old games on chinkhelds is not retro and will never be retro.
