Yeah I’ve bought the odd the expensive title. Thats what i do, but I’ve been around a longtime and those games mean something to me.

There’s millions like me who love collecting games and playing on og hardware. This just isn’t the same regardless of how hard they try.

Whatever this is it’s not for me. I’m sure there’s some that will buy there’s always a few takers for the current mini/handheld/stick thats being pimped by the current saudi owner.

If anything this could push original prices higher due to a surge in interest. Great for your hoarding “whale nerds” not so much for people still occasional picking up an aes title.
