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 this own guess!

Follow up question. Which gaming company would make a great stand alone console? They would take all their past and future offerings and put it on one system, making them exclusive. CAPCOM, SEGA (too soon?), UBISOFT, EA?
