The Price Is Retro

If this is your first time playing Price Is Retro, here’s how we play. I’m going to list off 4 or 5 games and everyone has to guess how much the lot is worth in total. Whoever is closest to the actual value wins that round! Everyone has a list and everyone guesses on each other's list. At the end, the player that won the most rounds wins the episode! But watch out for the robot Deus Guess Machina! He averages all of our guesses together for his own guess

Interesting tidbits

The series is weird about region exclusivity:

ReBoot camp has yet to be confirmed for a release in japan

Advance Wars (1) was delayed in japan (presumably as a result of the US war on terror, though not officially stated).(the US released coincidentally released just before on September 10, 2001)  It released 3 years later in 2004 as Game boy Wars advance 1 & 2, bundled with the second game.

Famicom wars, Gameboy Wars 1-3 were of course Japan only

Japan also only got Days of Ruin as an eshop exclusive, not physical.

 

Designer Kentaro Nishimura stated that the success of Advance Wars shifted NIntendo’s attitude towards western tastes and without it Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade would never have been localized.

 

Reboot camp is not the first time Nintendo outsourced the series development to a third party: Game boy wars Turbo, 2, and 3 were developed by Hudson and Battalion Wars 1 and 2 by Kuju Entertainment.
