I have made this point/rant in the past: How did console games stay around the $50-$60 price point for so long, despite inflation?

That's a damn good point.

I remember games like King's Quest in the 80s costing at least $40, and certainly some back in the 80s/90s costing $50 or even $60.

That's a lot of years with no price increases, all while the number of people needed make a large game has multiplied exponentially!
