Here we collect informationen about the former original prices of the Game&Watch games. Maybe some of you remember how much the games did cost back in the eighties. Or you have boxes which still have the original price labels.
Please report the prices here. If possible also mention the edition of the game (standard, tricOtronic, CGL, Pocketsize etc.) and the name of the store where the game was sold. I will update this posting as soon as I get more prices. Thank you!
