How much do you think Brawl will cost? I'm guessing $100 AUD. Which is $88.00 USD. And EUR 62.
What currency do you use in England, because it won't come up on the website I'm using. Isn't it and English Pound?

I don't understand some of those price ranges...but in America, it will be $50. No questions asked. That's how much all new Wii games are here.

But most new games here are $100 AU. And when I used this website: www.oanda.com/convert/classic it came up with $88 US, saying it was the same as $100 AU.

The PAL Nations get overcharged for their games. It will be $50 or $60 if Nintendo is particularly greedy, but not more than that for North America.

Back when I got Mario Kart: DD I paid NZ $129.95. That converter says it costs US $97!
I can't believe I paid so much for that game.

Isn't it and English Pound? Yes, we do use Pound Sterling in the UK! I expect it'll retail for £39.99 here in the UK, as much as all other Wii games do.

Wii games tend to retail here for between £35 and £40... the high profile ones go for £40, so I expect that's what Brawl will be also.
But so much for the overcharging! That actually works out cheaper than the U.S. price! ;D
Nintendo are the only console manufacturer who didn't raise the price of games this generation. Here they seem to have actually lowered them a bit.

I just hope we don't go back to the time of the N64, when new games cost £50!!

DK64 and LoZ:MM both cost me £60! It seemed perfectly normal back then, but at today's prices? Madness!

And don't forget Turok at a mind-boggling £70! That's around $140, for you non-Brits. Except back then the dollar wasn't quite so crap, so it was more like $115. I don't recall ever paying more than £40 for a first party N64 game though. Except DK64 because it came with the Expansion Pak. Methinks you guys might have been ripped off

Methinks you guys might have been ripped off I got them from EB, back before it became Game. It's possible that they were £50 and I'm just remembering wrong, though. I'm only about 60% sure. It was a long time ago.

HEY KIDS.
SINCE WHEN HAS A GAME WITHOUT ANY EXTRAS EVER COST OVER THE RANGE OF THE NORMAL PRICE ON THE LAST TWO GENERATIONS OF GAMING SYSTEMS EXCEPT FOR SPECIAL PROMOTED GAMES BUT NOT FOR LONG?!
*crickets*
WITH NINTENDO'S HELLHOLE STATUS WHAT IS THE CHANCE THEY'RE GOING TO PROMOTE THIS GREATLY WITHOUT TWO JAPANESE GUYS WALKING AROUND WITH JAPAN MAGIC CREATIVE MUSIC DESPITE BRAWL NOT BEING FOR "EVERYONE"?
That's right, low chances. It's going to be 50. If it's 60 I'll eat my pants.
