    It seems after Covid the prices of the games went up.

    I only have like two major games I want to buy for that platform. Skies of Arcadia AND Twilight Princess. That is likely going to cost me like 500 usd.

    Egads... and I thought some Atari computer games were insane.

    Game Cube? Well since they don't make it anymore it is in collectible area. Emulation is cheaper. :D

    The prices of a lot of things have gone up since covid started. It's rather unfortunate.

    I have a Mister I really have to learn how to use better. I need to spend
    some time on it. I will eventually have to pair down the collection, so
    getting everything working on that is a good plan.
