Idiocracy.

Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

I have a story. About 30 years ago Sonic & Knuckles was launched for Mega Drive. "I" bought that for 17.000$00 (Portuguese escudos). That roughly translates to 85€ without accounting for inflation.

So although the price hike is unfortunate, I'm actually surprised the prices of the games remained stable for so long.

Nah mate, I wasn't berating you but the artist. Changing a perfectly fine comic into a dumb lie is completely unfunny.

That's dumb. The glass is far from unbreakable, this is just building on a stupid lie.
