I know there's a London somewhere here, but I'm only sure about the British one.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I'd assume a fair few of the complaints about Canadian (and Australian) pricing because they are comparing directly with the USD prices, not factoring in that their currencies aren't as valuable as USD.

The main reason here is that the prices jumped because the value of the dollar lowered, but wages didn't actually go up, so for us it just felt like a 25% price increase.

Seems logical, a sudden increase in price can be seen as expensive, but these companies have exchange rates to deal with.

Usually us Aussies complaining is just because of how bad it was in the past. Things are pretty great now an I can often pick up games on day 1 for $60 USD. The only reason you would pay more is digital or not paying any attention to prices at different stores. We have 4 main stores that sell games here and the difference can vary as much as $30 on a $99 AUD game. At the very least you should he able to save a tenner of RRP.

Also here, but lately prices are diverging from the EUR(with tax)=USD(no tax) price range, so the times are changing :)

PSN is also pretty cheap, mostly because the Norwegian Kroner's value have fallen drastically (1USD 5 years ago was worth around 5.5NOK, while now its at 8.5 NOK), and the digital prices haven't changed.
