Why are you all making a big deal for NORMAL Japanese price.
8.240 yen usually tax is already included for Japan so thats pretty good actually.
Cheaper than other big budget PS3/360 games.
Resident Evil 5 was 8,800 yen and Metal Gear Solid 4 8,800 yen.
Star Ocean 4 8,925 yen
And for FF in general
Final Fantasy VI 11,400 yen
Final Fantasy VII 6,800 yen
Final Fantasy VIII 7,800 yen
Final Fantasy IX 7,800 yen
Final Fantasy X 8,800 yen
Final Fantasy X-2 7,800 yen
Final Fantasy XII 8,990 yen
Dragon Quest VI on Super Famicom 11,970 yen
Dragon Quest VII 7,800 yen

Music cds are generally 2,500 yen range sometimes in the 3,000 yen range.
DVDs 3,000-8,000 yen... most american movies 4,000-5,000 yen
Only cheap entertainment manga 400-620 yen for a single volume.240-300 yen for big weekly magazines.
1000 yen range for bunko volumes which are re-releases of old series with about sometimes 2 and half to 3 volumes in 1.
Although for games there is always the reissue that is like 2,990 yen - 3,990 yen.
Anyways if you wanna complain talk about Tales of Vesperia 7,800 yen its already been released once on 360 and compared to FF XIII,FFXIII is basically $4.77 more.
TOV compared to FF XIII is low budget and Namco should be ashamed.
