When did Nintendo 64 come out? Nintendo 64 A charcoal gray Nintendo 64 (right) and light gray Nintendo 64 controller Adjusted for inflation, that would be $443 today. How much was a Nintendo in 1986? The NES, when it was released in 1986, cost $200 US. When there’s an effectively unlimited supply of something, the cost is X. That means the cost of them goes up and up as the supply gets lower and lower, assuming there’s a demand for them. There is a very limited supply of old SNES cartridges out there because no one is making them anymore. Still, it’s nice to dream, and maybe someday the fans will get to play so many beloved games from a truly golden age in handheld gaming. The closest we have is the Legend of Zelda Game & Watch. Similarly Will there be a Gameboy Classic? Unfortunately, there are no plans for any classic consoles. However, as late as 2019, Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser implied that there are no plans for an N64 Classic Mini in the works. Is Nintendo making a 64 mini? It stands to reason that the next in line to receive the Classic Mini treatment would be the Nintendo 64 (or N64, as it is fondly referred to). The inflation rate since 1985 is a staggering 117.4 percent, meaning that the NES is actually the most expensive Nintendo console ever released ($199.99 in 1985 equals $434.69 in 2013). How much did an NES cost in 1985? Though the NES launched at a totally reasonable $199.99 that year, $199.99 was a significant sum of money in the mid-’80s. Major retailers, however, have kept the NES Classic Edition’s price at $60 if and when they have new units. The high demand and limited supply has apparently created an opportunity for small third-party retailers that have some consoles in stock to jack up the price.
