    I mean I agree with you on all points, it’s just that for this game bundle in particular, the value I’m getting personally is easily worth $83 or $50 or whatever it’s available for.

    Normally I would never ever pay for a game more than $20 or so. But if it’s for my kids and I to create memories, the price limit goes up. 😬

    It’s all relative. To me, these experiences I listed are worth that money to me. But I can understand that people without kids or perhaps means to but games don’t think it’s worth that much at all, especially if they are too young for the nostalgia. I think $100 is at the limit of what this should cost for me personally. Anything over is too much even for me.

    Bring the down votes: I find this price to be okay. What I’m buying, personally:

    • two games, not one
    • remastered games that look absolutely beautiful compared to their Wii versions
    • nostalgia coming up the wazoo dude, I’m loving playing these games again
    • being able to share this with my two kids who are loving these games as well, priceless IMO, sharing these moments together, them being proud of themselves for clearing the levels, me being proud of them for sticking it through

    All that at $50/game, definitely worth it for me. (Actually in Sweden I paid $83 for the bundle so even cheaper. Very nice deal.)











  • those things are not equivalent.

    If by “those things” you mean a men’s club and a women’s club, that’s kind of my whole point. They should be considered the same but are not. Given men’s history of women’s oppression, there’s a lot we can’t do without the assumption of possibly being oppressive or sexist. Sometimes it’s hard being a man of one of the first generations in the starting centuries of women’s liberation (if it will even ever conclude).

    Not as hard as women have had it of course, but if we want equality for all, that means we have to act the part, from both sides. 🙂
