So given enough time will retro stuff go down in price as those who played it as a kid get too old and younger generations don't care as much?

Or will each new generation produce retro collectors and enough to keep the prices on the rise?
Good point but i think theres a few retro collectors out there that didnt grow up with the older games & consoles who still apreciate them for one reason or another.
If you make a comparison to toy collectors for arguements sake,theres a lot of younger generation collecting the old toys,not because they grew up with them but because they are a fan of something in particular or again appreciate them for one reason or another
