    in 2020, they made people pay 60$ for 3 old games. people thought it was ridiculous.

    in 2025, they’re making you pay 70$ for 2 old games.

    lmao

      And then there’s me, who bought the trilogy, and will now buy the duology, so I’m getting 4 games for $130.

      Edit: why down vote this? Can you explain why this is off topic or otherwise down vote worthy? I’m not saying I’m being smart with these purchases 😆 I’m just saying it’s another situation. I’m buying these games for my kids as they love Mario.

        Bragging with financial stupidity.

        But where you are right now it’s like saying “I voted conservative” in the highest amount of democratic voters where you’ll get lynched for voted conservative.

          I’m… I’m not bragging though? It’s just another situation/combination, like I said. And it’s been years now since I bought the 3D All Stars games, over time this doesn’t amount to a lot of money per year, or especially per month. My kids play all the time. The games have almost paid for themselves. 🥰 Watching them experience what I did when I was a kid. It’s been great.

          Are people angry that I somehow “wasted” my money? I don’t get it.

          That’s kind of what I’m saying. Doing it for my kids though. They’re worth every penny. They love Mario.
