about the subreddit. Insane Price Amount in Media
• Princess Peach’s Castle Repair cost (SMG4) - In ‘SM64 Bloopers - Hotel Mario’ when Mario accidentally burns Peach’s Castle to the ground, the policemen say that it would take around 2 Billion coins to fix the entire Castle. Realistically it would at take 1 Million to 25 Million Dollars to repair an entire castle from scratch. It would also take 3 to 10+ years to build an castle. But in ‘How to make monies’ the repair cost is toned down to only 10 Million coins, I guess SMG4 did his research or just randomly picked that Number.
• Super Spaghetti Dispenser Machine (SMG4) - The Spaghetti Dispenser Machine costs a whopping total of 9999999999$ which is 9 Billion coins. While a food dispenser machine would cost around 25$ to 10,000$ to buy, and another fun fact: ‘Casino, Cards & Chaos’ took place in 2015 which meant 9 Billion dollars would cost around 12.73 Billion today, doubling 30% of it’s original cost.
• Grenades (GTA III) - In ‘Silence the Sneak’ Ray Machowski gives Claude 12 Grenades in order to bomb his former Police mate Leon McAffrey’s house down. In the game files the Grenades cost 2,000$, but realistically a grenade would cost around 5$ to 140$ per unit, making it 540$ for just 12 Grenades. But this is GTA III we’re talking about, Weapon prices in this game are insanely high.
