   So with the competitive Australian dollar, that means an Aussie price of $45. At that price I’d buy every launch title. Wait, what do you mean Nintendo doesn’t take the state of the economy into account when pricing games? Dammit! $70 per game, here we come.

   Anyone who thinks that the pricing for 3DS games in Australia is going to be in the vicinity of AU$39.95, are dreaming. How long has the whole ‘retail in Australia’ debate been going on for? Technically we shouldn’t be paying more than America for any of these products (since our dollar is worth almost as much), but the reality of the situation is that we’re put over a barrel by the powers that be. It’s all about the money, and greed is a powerful thing. I would expect to see these games being sold at no less than $AU59.95.

      To be honest, I expect to see $79.95 in Australia.

      They’re more advanced than DS titles, right? That’s what they’ll say…

         And you would probably be right, Fenixius. I just pulled out a number which I thought might be at the very lowest end of their asking price. I would say that $79.95 is more close to the mark.

         Well, we’ll see. GBA games were $70 before that, and Gameboy Color were $50. With inflation, it’s remained surprisingly stable.

         After all, $70 today is worth the same as $70 in March.
