The Game Deflators

Xbox Series S pricing has been revealed, PlayStation hits 25 years of age, the PS5 has an upcoming showcase and Nintendo wants developers preparing for 4K on the Switch. In what was a heavy news week, the Game Deflators tie all of the recent announcements for the upcoming generation of gaming into what could spell the end of Gamestop as we know it. Additionally, John and Ryan dig deep into their souls and come to terms with Nintendo being one of the most predatory gaming companies.

To cap off the episode, the guys play Prince of Persia on the NES for this week's inflation deflation game of the week. Considered a great cinematic platformer for its time, does this game hold up to the $25 price tag for a loose cart?
