Crazy Retro Game Prices

The retro gaming scene goes through swings and roundabouts. Often, when a new generation of gaming arrives it spells the end of the previous generation and frequently, this is the best time to pick up some future classics and rare collectables. However, some games go under the radar, are much coveted, have limited editions or have a small print run and fetch a high price for those reasons. But occasionally the retro game prices can make your eyes water and that is what this post is about. I'll start off with these two but will add more as I find them.

Have you ever come across crazy prices in shops for rare games? I know in gaming expos and conventions crazy prices for retro games is the norm but how about in the wild?

Science Museum Power UP Brings Retro Gaming Back

Okay, so the Easter holidays have started and it looks like it may be a washout (at least initially if the weather reports are to be believed)

Well, if you're looking for something to do you could do a lot worse than visit the Science Museum in London, which from the 30 March – 15 April 2018 is holding Power Up, a retro gaming exhibition. The whole thing is hands on and children get a chance to play the best of video gaming from the past 40 years including Space Invaders, Pacman, Sonic, Mario and even VR.
Tickets can be purchased at the link below but why not do yourself a favour and head over. I went to this same event a couple of years ago and loved it.
