How is that a response to "Who would ever want a CE for this game?" I didn't buy the CE.

Yeah I get that. I have a whole load of cracking Mega Cd games but the reason I wanted to get the PS4 Night Trap for my sister is purely for nostalgia reasons. She doesn't exactly keep a Megadrive and Mega CD set up these days(but does have a PS4) but over twenty years ago we were both living at our parents still and we used to play Night Trap a lot.
I never said it was a good game - purely one I have fond memories of and that I wanted to get as a nostalgic gift. Missed out though. Just one of those things. She probably wouldn't play it anyway.
Millennial hipsters who weren't around when cassettes were at their peak. They're like, retro, man!I totally get the vinyl resurgence, but who the hell is nostalgic for cassettes? I just don't get it.
There are currently 51 ebay listings for Night Trap PS4... and the game hasn't even shipped yet. So, scalpers get an order placed with LRG for $30, post an ebay listing for $100+, get paid $$$, then re-ship when the game arrives. Does LRG make any effort to flag these flippers?

Probably like 3 years ago. Prices on used decks have gone up as well in that time frame. I don't know that I'd call it a full on revival, just something new for hipsters to cling to from a prior generation since their generation is shit.I haven't been following the whole bizarre Cassette tape revival. When did this happen?
I know there was a sudden spike in Cassette announcements after that Record Store Day exclusive "Guardians of the Galaxy" Cassette was released. Is it linked to that doing well?

When CD's come back we'll all make a fucking killing.
I wonder if the same people that are into cassettes now will be the same people into CDs 10 years from now.
That's probably another 10+ years out. Start stocking up on dollar CDs from the thrift stores now!
