What I don't understand is that 10 years ago when Sydney hosted the Olympic games - the Australian dollar was about 0.55USD, recommended retail price (RRP) for videogames was $100. Today in 2010 the Australian dollar is about 0.94USD games still retail for $100. Games have had absolutely no roll-back on prices why is this?

Your dollar has just gained ground on the American dollar, in terms of world currency it probably is about the same as it was back then.  As we were in the same boat our dollar was about .65 to the american dollar and now we are at or about on par with them.  and an Australian dollar is worth about 0.94 cents Canadian as well.

 

Though we have seen about a $5-$10 drop on our games :)



Unicorns ARE real - They are just fat, grey and called Rhinos
