You pay $400 for it new or buy a used digital system for less. Sony even sells a refurbished disc version for $400 if you are weirdly stuck on physical (since I assume you don’t buy it that way with your current gaming hardware). Do you also quote the highest possible price for a cellphone or a pc?
I mean, you chose your medium for playing games. The same thing exists for a lot of games. I’m quite sure you paid at least that to game in your platform of choice.
Considering I’d have a PC regardless, no. My GPU is the only thing that’s really “gaming specific,” and I pay about $200-300 per console generation for an upgrade, and I’d still need something for display out regardless.

Yes you are right, paying $400 for a game is of course very much reasonable.
