I would seriously consider storing my wealth in games rather than in precious metals at this point, and despite just picking up a MiSTer (and it genuinely being the best thing since being given a PC and a modem with unlimited internet at 16 years old) I'm having conversations with my wife about getting into collecting AES carts again.

Once it's over and they're back to their regular lives, they'll start looking at those retro games taking up space, and decide to sell them, flooding the market.
Retro games will always rise in value because by definition they're becoming rarer, but I just think we're in a weird bubble at the mo.

Will said people look to flog their retro stuff on Flea-Bay? Sure. But they'll look to do so for the nonsense inflated prices that we've seen in recent times and they'll seek to justify it with whataboutery.
Inflated retro prices haven't decreased in recent years, they've increased. For me, there's nothing to suggest that will change, pandemic or not.

Exactly, Add to that the fact that all currencies are rapidly losing their value like never before.
House prices.
£70 PlayStation games.
Component shortages and thus hardware prices.
Practically everything on eBay, not just retro games.
Even the prices of our bread and milk have gone up 25% over two years, with my regular hourly rate taking a 20% slash.
I can't get rid of the cash I earn fast enough, at current. It's Hyperinflation City, and everywhere I look people just keep putting up with it because of Covid or whatever. Things will not go back to normal after everyone is in the clear because this is now the normal, and it's been that way for as long as I look back when I think about it.
A global pandemic really is the best scapegoat for just keeping calm and carrying on.
