They probably had to get their supply pipeline in order. I remember being at Incirlik AS, Turkey in the early 80's, and the only pants you could get at the BX were $40 Levi 501's and dress slacks from Alexander's of London, at about $70 a pair. Nothing for us broke SSgt's. The Levi's had a lot of resale value downtown, from what I heard. It took about two years of complaints before they got anything else...just as I left for stateside.
That said, I bet most of the guys would play an Atari 2600 and be happy to have it. Anything to give them something to do when there is nothing else to do will do nicely. They won't complain about newer and better, either, of course.
