This issue affects the videogame industry a whole lot and many consumers refuse to believe it. The XBox 360 recently debuted for $400. People thinking that this is an absurd price for a gaming console and that prices have increased soo much since videogames first came out. If you use an inflation calcuator, the NES that came out in 1983 was actually right at the same price as the XBox 360.
Videogame prices have went down, rather than up in the past decade.
