I've noticed the pricing of games to be pretty inconsistent between stores, except for EB, which will charge to most it can for a game. Toy's R' Us as far as I know sell all their Wii games for $79.95. This sucks, becuase I can't get to a Toys R' Us and I am limited to only the games advertised within their catalogue by price-matching at EB.

Try Myer. Also, EB can match prices.

Damm.

I thought most games were around $90-$100

I just bought rayman at BigW thinking $93 was the cheapest price around..

Is this $80 thing at toys r us permanent or just a sale?

I am surprised to find the price drop happen so quickly the thing jut launched.. You would expect this to happen if sales were poor but I dont think that is the case

I don't get why WarioWare can be $79.99 and ExciteTruck $99.99.

They are both Nintendo 1st party games so you would thinkg 1st Party would be $79.99 and 3rd Party $99.99.

That would seem fair and showing abit of thanks from Nintendo not that it really bothers me as I'm happy to dish out my hard earned to the Big N.

Maybe because Wario consists of Mini games while Excite truck is one whole big game. However, I also want to know whether Toys R Us's Wii price is $79.99 nationwide?

Reviews have classed Excite Truck as that of a Tech demo with not much depth, So I think you are abit off on that comment.

It's more to the fact that it's going to appeal to the mainstream audience and adults and therefore sell more.

Anyone seen Excite Truck for $79.99?

This may be the only time I say this: WTF? $70 is the RRP for DS games? No wonder I never set foot in an EB: they're selling Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin there for $80. Shrink-wrapped Cooking Mama for $60. JB Hifi FTW.
