I can't really help but say this, but Ma'idah looks good, especially in that dress. Also, she's fun to listen to as she laughs a lot.
It bugs me how you joke about Wii U sales, as it sounds like a great family gaming system. Then again, the Wii is a good-enough family gaming system and is the cheapest system out there. Then AGAIN, people often go for "the next big thing", and 30-something parents of single-digit-age children (as in Bob's generation, and Bob, The Game Overthinker, said he loves his Super Mario) love whatever games they might have grown up with, from Super Mario 3 to Megaman 2.
On another note, inflation rates over the past 7 years average at 2.1% - http://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/current-inflation-rates/ - (2008 Recession halted inflation almost completely), so total inflation brings money 7 years ago at 1.15 of the value of money today. By that inflation, the $600 PS3 price would be at about $700 today, while $60 games would be about $70.
