As if $60 wasn't too much already. Well, now I'm really not buying games on launch anymore (not that I really ever did in the first place, unless it was something I was really anticipating) $65 and $70 is outrageous. You can go to the bargain bin and buy a handful of good games for $70 all together.

you guys don't know Brazil it's worse, 1st party 3DS games here are mostly R$149,90($62.33)

If you buy retail from the eshop in the UK games are mostly £40 which is $66 so I avoid it like the plague buy from Amazon where prices are around £30 which is still like $50 bucks it is pretty expensive everywhere these days.

lol I guess it's time to get a WiiU a lot of the games are even cheaper than 3DS games now!

goodbyes are a sad part of life but for every end there's a new beggining so one must never stop looking forward to the next dawn

I checked the eshop to see how bad it was, and had to do a double-take. As if eshop games weren't already overpriced. Yuck.
Another reason why I'm mainly a PC gamer now.

I thought Australia had regular price if you buy digital. Does this effect the online shops from the consoles themselves?

Depends where you buy.

Well if digital ends up being cheaper, I don't really see the issue, but that's a big IF.

I think these companies just need to lower their budget, and Nintendo admittedly needs to up theirs a bit.
I think Nintendohaving some games for $50 is a good example. They understand that a big budget doesn't always equal a game that will sell.

In Ireland, games are €60-€65 when they are released ($83-90).
Online is all ways cheaper, do I order off Amazon.co.uk.
