It should be noted £40 is the RRP in the UK and that no game ever costs RRP. Golden Abyss was avaliable for pre-order at £25 a few weeks back and is £35 at the moment. Further, all games in the UK crash in price a lot faster then anywhere else, GA will be down to £17.99 in a month or so from one of the online retailers. |
Except if you look in stores and online £40 is the selling price, so the RRP is likely higher than £40. Cheap pre-orders before official pricing released do not count, hence why all those stores have since increased the price. Not all games drop in price heavily either, UC3 still has not hit that price point, so unless the Vita bombs and stores need shift excess stock it is unlikely UC GA will price drop anytime soon.

Golden Abyss is £35 from shopto right now and will be £35 in Morrisons on Vita launch day. You'd know it'll hit at least £25 within a month, but undoubtedly lower, if you follow hotukdeals.com.
Uncharted 3 hit £17.99 on play.com before Christmas too - but has gone back up to £24 for now.
I dunno if you're from the UK but EVERY game (Except COD and Nintendo games) tanks in price within a month. Skyrim was literally £22 2 weeks after launch, Saints Row 3 was £20 early December. No games actually launched in Janurary so there are no examples i can really point out here of relevance - but compairing US pricing to UK is stupid as the markets are very different, was my point.
