Well, not exactly one thing, more like;

Xbox 360 = $500
Nintendo Wii = $400
Playstation 2 = $400 (at the time)

81cm LCD TV to play these on = $1500
and over (wait for it) 100 games @ $80-100 dollars EACH = $8000 -$9000 !!!!!!!!!

And I said: "stuff this, I am buying a 12" telescope TODAY!!!"

and then I went and asked my wife ......
