!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

So if the average price was $50 in 2000, and is about $70 today, assuming a linear rate of price increases, it would be $1663.33 in 4024.
This is a terrible model: it likely underestimates as inflation is geometric rather than arithmetic.
For a geometric model we have r=1.011329 over this period, thus extrapolating we get a price of...
$208,200,000,000
Which is insane, because it is so low for Nintendo!
And the minimum wage in 4024 is $2082, so it's only the heads of Elon, Zuckerberg and Bezos that can afford it.
Don't forget Nixon's head!
