$55 for the standard edition is a joke. I'd pay $25 max. They said this on their website:


"Our Collector Edition games are priced below the inflation-adjusted price of original games published in the in the 1980s. In 1982, for example, Pitfall!™ and Keystone Kapers™ were published with a suggested retail price of $39.95. Adjusted for inflation that would be $107 today. Accordingly, the suggested retail price for a feature-rich, Collector Edition Atari 2600 game from Audacity Games™ is $99.00.* For retro gamers on a budget, a lower-priced Standard Edition boxed-game is available."

The problem with that logic is that games have gotten a lot cheaper since then, in general. A game you can sink hundreds of hours into might only cost you $60. I'm not spending the same amount on a game I might get 3-5 hours out of, tops.
