I remember a few SNES games being $79 at release. One example I remember buying was Street Fighter II.

But that came in a nice metal tin :)

I can remember having to go halves on it for my Xmas present, as I think it was well outside the norm price wise.

Never regretted that purchase though! Unlike a lot of the overpriced half finished pre-order games we get nowadays..

Oh that tin! I was so excited with my purchase--having saved up for months to get it at launch--that I missed my stop on the bus home. I had to get off about a mile away and ran to my SNES like I'd never ran before.

Carts got up to like $80. After PSX came out, disc-based game prices trended down towards $50, and seem to now be going up to $60.
