@rekh127@sunbeam.city @fribbledom Oh, I've never heard of it happening to downloadable games. I'm referring to out-of-print games. Just look at the price tag on Earthbound, or Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, or Suikoden 2.

We don't play many PC games, so that didn't even cross my mind at all.

@fribbledom @rekh127@sunbeam.city Still not always the case; Xenoblade Chronicles skyrocketed in price very soon after release. I remember seeing it for $100 about one year after we got our copy, which was a few months after release. That said, it's true that most games fall in price fairly quickly.
