I never remember PS1 games being over $40 US, the $50 ones being multi-disc titles like Gran Turismo and Final Fantasy. Price of N64 games varied wildly purely on how much ROM capacity is needed for whatever title but I always remember seeing them selling in the $60+ territory.
Full price mainstream games will always have a place as long as people are buying at $60, which is more a console than PC market dependent practice. PC is for the long term the platform for indie and small time developers. As a newly married man, who is both a part time student and part time worker, I rarely buy $60 games at launch anymore. I feel sort of like I'm missing out, but it's been a way to force myself to play the games I have but haven't completed.
