    Wait, what? I just bought my younger brother an n64 with an expansion pack, rumble pack, and Majora’s Mask and OoT for Christmas, and all together that only cost 180$. All legit copies and hardware. Made double and triple sure.

    Are people just not hitting the “sort lowest to highest” option on auction sites? Or is this a new development in the last few months?

      No, it looks like prices have come way down in the past few months. Last time I checked was a year+ ago. My information just wasn’t up to date.

        Ah, that makes sense. Consoles do tend to spike in price at the height of their nostalgia wave. Probably got boosted up for a while by the rumors of an N64 mini not panning out, and instead being presented with the sub par switch online expansion. Probably created a lot of demand for the real thing.
