> The prices for them now is ridiculous.

Ridiculous like the back of Yvonne’s head[1] or the laughably bad kind?

I think as much as Nintendo can recover off of that property they should. The Atari 2600 sold as much as it did not because it was the best tech, but because it made the market through advertising. If you have supply, and you make the demand and/or there is demand, and you’re not concerned with staying on top, you can milk that cow.

The last descendant of the DS line went out of production some time last year so I guess Nintendo's not making money off of them anymore now.


It certainly seems like something that will be towed.
