[QUOTE="beano, post: 37188, member: 742"] Ryano, just because Nintendo shaft Irish gamers too doesn't make it any less bad that they shaft British ones. That said, just remember the US $50 price tag is before tax (I'm guessing but this is usually the case), so that'll bring it to about $58 (roughly £29). To be fair though, the big advantage I'd guess is that in the UK you've a wide choice of online stores to buy from - more competition = more bargains. I got Mario Strikers for £27 from Virgin Megastores online. Keep an eye on HotUKDeals.com they occasionally post links to good Wii deals. I actually think it sounds like Canadians are getting ripped off the worst (I stand to be corrected, this is only based on what's posted here and could be off). I know their dollar went below par with the US one in the summer though and it sounds like they're still paying more!! Ouch. The biggest rip-off of all is Wii Points, especially in UK/Eurozone.
