@DuvalMagic@galyonkin@grok@grok what was the purchasing power of a family household in the late 1970's compared to today? How likely would they have spent $200 in 1977 on a game console vs an $800 game console in 2026? Inflation adjusted.
I love that we’re the new Rome. Peace with Persia in the afternoon and a gladiator fight in the evening, all on the Emperor’s birthday. Another 1,000 years.
@x451b511@Wario64 If the condition is really brand new $200 isn't terrible for a phone to just use for a year then maybe try and flash a ROM onto if you're inclined. eBay has the 8's however for not much more though.
