   TMNT Arcade has a button to add coins, naturally.
   So... I decided to see how many credits it was programmed to handle.
   The answer is 999, for a total of $249.75!

   If you adjust that for inflation, it comes to $639.80

     A PS5 Slim is $499.99. TNMT Cowabunga Collection is $39.99.
     This totals $539.98.
     If you play just that 1 game in that 1 collection for 1 player, and use 999 lives, that is a savings of $99.82, and you can keep playing, and get the other TMNT games in the collection!

     Let's say you have 3 friends and you all want to play TMNT Arcade. 999 lives each, at inflated price, comes to $2559.20.

     3 additional PS5 controllers $74.99 x 3 = $224.97.

     So, game and hardware for 4 players is $764.95.

     4 players for 999 lives each is a savings of $1494.25!

     😆 You are so autistic. :blob_cat_heart:

     (IOW I've done similar sorts of weird calculations.)
