What is your retro game budget, be it per game or per span of time?

$3 each for retro or current games $1 each for 6th gen - or 20% of ebay value whichever is higher.

Suffice to say I haven't bought very many retro games in a while.

I don't like to go over $5 a game unless it's worth a lot more. Then it just depends on what the asking price is and how much I want the game.

I used to collect but when they wanted $159 for batman on Saturn I gave up and went to flashcarts/flash drives
Sold all my shit and haven't looked back
(And also haven't been happier)

$10 for a good game, $20 for a great game.
Most of what I buy is in the $5 range (Gameboy).
I do make exception on occasion though, like, I finally bit the bullet on getting a N64, so that was pretty pricey, but I got most of my new games for $12 or less, exceptions being Smash Bros and Mario Kart.

I try not to spend more than $100 on any given spree.

I don't really have a budget. I'll try to find deals though, some of the fun is the search but other times I just pay whatever I need to. I think my most expensive purchase was a snes or $70.00. It kind of balances out though because the other snes I bought was $10.00 and marked broken but it just had a loose ac connection.

so why did you pay 70 dollars for an snes...

I wanted a mini and had shit luck finding one at garage sales and goodwills so I bought one at the at the retro store.

Whatever the price of a flash cart is for each specific system.

For the past year? Zero.

It's not really worth it to buy video games, especially retro these days.

Hell, the last games I bought recently were Dead Rising and Dead Rising 2 and thats because I let my bro take the 360 and I got the 360.

I have so many that it's not worth it to spend 60 bucks on anything. I can wait for inevitable price drops to 25 or less.
