I'm with you on this one. I feel out-of-place when I saw people buy $900 or $1200 or $2000 tvs in the past. Aren't TVs supposed to be priced under $250?!?! I got by with old hand-me-down CRT TVs all the way up until this year, when the family bought a returned older-model 32" LCD 720p TV for $150 at a Sam's Club.
But then again, I guess I'm a luddite when it comes to things like that.
Chozo Ghost:
You need the old CRT TVs to use the NES Zapper in order to play games like Duck Hunt, Hogan's Alley, and so on. So CRT TVs are better at least in that respect. The Zapper won't work on the new ones.
ThePerm:
i've seen cars in newspapers for $800 they are Jalopies though

Sorry for the interruption, but what's a "4k TV"?

Oh Kairon. If you spend all your money keeping TV manufacturers afloat, who would spend all their money to keep video game publishers going? You play too valuable a role in the ecosystem to abandon it!
TJ Spyke:
4K as in the resolution of the TV. Each horizontal line is about 4,000 pixels (usually between 3,600 and 4,100). 1080p (which is the highest for most current HDTVs) is around 1,920 horizontal pixels.
Of course, a Japanese company called NHK is already proposing 8K TVs.
