Can you remember the days when you could get any N64 game for peanuts more than £40...the only time you ever spent more was when you bought DK64 and got a free £25 Expansion Pack (As Standard) but now you can get Zelda cheaper in Dixons and Prices for No Mercy are matched In High Street shops. A N64 game with a free Guide the same price as S.R with No Guide. S.R games cheaper because of high stock levels? Maybe But hey...don't we love them...do we? Yes of course but then again they aren't what they used to be are they? Prices are Higher....Special Reserve Inflation Rates are sky rocketing, what will we do...Armageddon is apon is...isn't it?

No...it isn't but still The Prices are Higher, and rising and availablity is decreasing, supply and demand are not quite meeting

S.R..........Watch your prices...Prices or Customers....one has to Decrease!

I think it's "gameaday tax", and I'm happy to pay it.

(Pay what? You've only ever brought one game!)

Shush.

Prices are only UP where there are shortages. Invariably because we have had to pay more for the products.

Affects N64 particularly this year, that's because the publishers are not making enough of the stuff. They are worried they will get stuck with expensive carts which they cannot shift.

Distributors with stock are charging premium prices.

Our biggest problem was TWINE. Promised FIVE times more stock that we actually received. Had to bring it in from Europe.
