is it the thought that really counts?

During Costco Death March today, i saw the Ultimate Arcade stand-up unit. Eighty-one classic games. Great stuff. But the price is outrageous ($2000 in the store). You can buy old video games for $10; assume that price for ancient, if "classic", games, and the cost of the stand-up arcade is $810. So is the hardware worth $1200? Highly doubtful. Why are these pinheads trying to gouge classic game lovers? People will probably stick to their homemade stand-up arcades with a PC and MAME as guts.
