  • RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic Now Available on Nintendo Switch - 9 December 2024

    It’s time to strap in for a wild ride because publisher Atari is thrilled to announce the launch of RollerCoaster Tycoon® Classic on Nintendo Switch! Combining the best features of RollerCoaster Tycoon® and RollerCoaster Tycoon® 2, RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic brings the fan-favorite theme park sim to current-gen consoles for the first time. Watch the RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic Nintendo Switch launch trailer: Jam-packed with content, players have enjoyed designing and building roller coasters and rides, landscaping, and managing their parks since the first game was introduced in 1999. Now, would-be theme park planners can relive the magic as they create daring drops, ludicrous loops, and spin-tingling spins in the pursuit of making their parks the best in the world. The launch of RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic on the Nintendo Switch caps off an eventful year for the RCT franchise. In Ma…

  • RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic (Nintendo Switch) Review - 5 December 2024

    Seeing RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic finally make it to the Switch genuinely caught me by surprise. For a game with such a sterling reputation, it’s amazing that it wasn’t mentioned during any Nintendo Directs or given any kind of fanfare. Regardless of how it got there, it’s finally here, and that’s pretty cool on its own. I’ve mentioned in the past that RollerCoaster Tycoon was one of two games I was allowed to have on my computer back in the early 2000s. Despite being a soft-brained 12-year-old and having almost no capacity for sim games, I always enjoyed its unique gameplay and distinctive charm. I’m not exaggerating when I say I probably haven’t revisited RollerCoaster Tycoon in decades, and the Switch version has definitely left me with mixed feelings. I won’t spend much time talking about the game because, at its core, it remains the same game that defined an era of PC gaming. Pla…

  • RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic rides onto Steam tomorrow - 27 September 2017

    Last December, RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic—a remaster of 1999's RollerCoaster Tycoon—launched on mobile devices. Tomorrow, it arrives on Steam.  Remastered by series creator Chris Sawyer, RCT Classic aims to "combine the best features" from the 18-year old original and its successor RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. And it comes with the game's Toolkit, Wacky Worlds and Time Twister expansions in tow. Here's the trailer for RTC Classic's mobile iteration: Speaking to those expansions, Wacky Worlds adds an extra 17 park scenarios to the base game, as well as famous landmark pavilions—Big Ben, the Statue of Liberty, etc.—each with its own specific challenges. Time Twister adds 14 scenarios based around historical and/or fantasy themes; while Toolkit offers up a Park Scenario Editor.  If the latter is your cup of tea, this story from Michael…

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $19.99
  • Highest observed: $19.99

RollerCoaster Tycoon® Classic's USD price history spans from Sep 22, 2026 to Sep 22, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $19.99, the highest is $19.99, and the first visible tracked price is $19.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

RollerCoaster Tycoon® Classic's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $19.99, from Sep 22, 2026 through Sep 22, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $19.99. The latest run records $19.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $19.99
  • Current list price: $19.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records RollerCoaster Tycoon® Classic at $19.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
