Considering the current market for any game is going to be maybe 100 copies
max over a few years time, $50 a game isn't unreasonable. Unless the costs
for the boart and case drop dramatically.

For what it's worth and to let all of you know. I'd be more than happy
paying $50 to $60 (and yes I mean USD currency which is like a million
dollars in CAD currency right now haha) for a finished product CoCo game
cartridge. I don't see that unreasonable at all. For the amount of time and
effort it takes someone to produce these games it's a bargain!
I was lucky enough to buy a copy of Fahrfall on the first run for $40 and I
thought that was a deal! It even came with a case and the cartridge was hand
made from plastic resin.
My point is, we don't need to try and keep cost down to $30 like Nick & Ed
are referring to. Gamers and collectors will pay the higher price tag
because we know these games are special, rare and a lot of effort went into
making them. I myself like to support the small guy / homebrew maker. After
all that's where the quality is!
