> How much would you pay for an Oystron cart? I was thinking about $16. But > try to answer like if you were the programmer... :-) One thing you might want to do is post to the general "rec.games.video.classic" groups to see what people are willing to pay. (If you haven't already... I have not read those groups in quite a while) When I was asking the same question for SoundX and Edtris 2600, I got responses ranging from $5 to >$100(!). But the average was in the neighborhood of $20 or less. Personally I'd pay $16 for a new Atari 2600 game, but not much more. I kind of look at it like: When the 2600 was *the* hot system, new games were going for ~$25 or so. The 2600 is not the hot new system it used to be :-) I'd really be interested in what you find the current "perceived" value of new 2600 software is. Be sure to keep us updated.
