The value is there if you play with friends. So, definitely not for everybody, but then again nothing is. As a teenager, we definitely got $50 of enjoyment per year out of the 16-bit editions. Even back in the 90s it was actually a pretty affordable form of entertainment if you got a few dozen fun gaming sessions out of it with your buddies. There weren't a lot of other ways to spend $50 and be entertained for months. Same with Capcom's hilariously incremental updates to Street Fighter II. We honestly did get full value from them. If you're putting dozens of hours into a game those incremental updates are super valueable. These days, of course, I have nobody to play with. So these games wouldn't be worth $6 to me today, let alone $60. =(
