    Games will be the same price as gameboy advance games currently are. Up to €49.99 for big games, others coming in at around €29.99-34.99.

    Nearly all launch games fall into that first catagory, by the way.

    50 euros for a DS game!. I'll be getting a DS tomorrow but think i'll get my games from play.com. Are mario 64 and Warioware in the 50 euro price bracket.

    They're in the top tier, but I dunno whether they'll sell for the full €50. You're looking at at least €40 though.

    Weren't first party games like Wario Wario and Mario 64 supposed to be lower than thrid party games on the DS? I doubt they'd go to €50. I hope not anyway.

    for wario ware and mario 64 you might be better off getting them from DVD soon, (and mario is just back in stock :) )

    I think I will. And while I'm waiting I can at least see Shining Force when I'm playing on the bus. I'm going to be so broke for the rest of the month :) It's worth it.
