I think it will be worth it. I dont know the conversion rate into £ but we pay £40 and have to wait a LOT longer in the UK. Wont stop me getting it on launch though.

really? wow. most wii games are only 60 but 70 bucks? oh well ill pay it for smash anyday. until i got my Wii and Pc i still played melee from time to time so 70 bucks is totally acceptable.

now SMG for 70 doesn't sound too good to me. especially since MP3 is 60 seems like a cheap shot.

I would honestly pay more for it. Also, where has this been confirmed at?

That doesn't necessarily mean that will be the final sale price though... The game still has over 100 days till it's launched.

Smash bros was my favorite game back in the gamecube i still play it. so i wont mind spending ten bucks more.

But in my country a wii game is 50 bucks. thats because my country doesnt use dollars so the conversions aren't accurate.

Many GCN games launched at $69.99 so it's nothing new. I'm pretty sure Wind Waker was $69.99. Not that I agree with the pricing, because we're getting WAY over charged, problem is that they haven't adjusted their pricing to the new exchange rates. A bunch of us Canadians should flood their inboxes with "Adjust for the exchange rate" letters.

Right, but the Canadian Dollar could go back down again by the time they actually start to sell it. Or maybe we'll surpass the American Dollar (doubt it...). So anyways they would have to be constantly changing the price based on exchange rates. It's just a temporary price.

Even if it's not though, like I said earlier I wouldn't mind paying that much.

If they charge the same price as a PS3 game, aren't they negating their whole philosophy?

Even in the US, they said all games will be $50. So what makes this one different?

EDIT: EB Games US has it for $50 and so does amazon.com.

I think the Canadians posting here are forgetting one teensy little detail.......14% tax lol. Its actually gonna cost like $80 ($79.79) for the game, but I dont mind paying the full price for the game even though I doubt the price will be that high.

There's an easy solution here. Buy Super Mario Galaxy to keep you happy, and then get Brawl for Christmas or something. It's a bit of a wait, but you won't have to waste your money.

Not the same price as a PS3 game here, most PS3 games around me (Ontario) are $79.99 + tax

Edit: I looked at a few games sites, and I guess they ARE $69.99, but I swear at one point the were more expensive.

ive seen this b4, its not the actual price, they are just making sure that the pre-orders are of a accurate price or higher, they dont want to lose money for advertising it lower, it wont be 69.99 dont worry
