I look at the inactivity in the "show what retro items you've bought" thread in comparison to days gone by and it makes me wonder where we're all at. I'm curious if that particular thread being so much less active is as a result of:
1: Members being older and having everything they want having lived through the periods of gaming we love?
2: We've all sold up and moved to emulation or SD cart solutions?
3: No one wants to pay the prices that retro kit is now being sold at?
4: lack of availability?
5: Something else?
I look at the prices stuff is going for on eBay, someone is obviously buying it, but who are these people paying ridiculous sums for games that we owned for comparatively next to nothing in our purchasing history?
