  3. Well... while the price of the Switch 2 certainly causes sticker shock, when you adjust for inflation it's only about as expensive as the SNES was at launch... and is in fact *cheaper* then the NES was at launch.

However, in the PS3's case when adjusted for inflation it was about 1.5 times as expensive as the SNES at launch (for the 20 gb version, the 60 gb was double).

      I would think what you can get today from a competitor for the same price or less is much more would be much more relevant than anything that occurred 40 years ago

      (yes, the NES is 40 years old)
