As I was searching through some pictures on a old hard drive, came across this Walmart Black Friday Video Game ad from 2016. 10 years later this feels like a dream compared to sales we get now.
Everywhere you look its a insane deal. We had it made.
A few that stood out to me were Call of Duty Blacks ops and GTA San Andreas for $8
A Sealed copy of Minecraft for the Xbox 360 for $15? unimaginable now.
For a few of these games, they had just released. Overwatch came out in May of that year.
Interestingly I looked it up the 2006 flyer didn’t have much in the way of video games listed but they were selling some PS2 games for less then $10 (which is still only $17 in today’s dollars)
They had Doom for 15 bucks 6 months after release? I didn’t know console players also got good deals sometimes.
check the same flyer in the same area about 3 months before that flyer came out… I bet the sales 3 months previous were cheaper then whatever that black Friday nonsense is
