Serious question, not meant to be flame Shawn. Are Playmore making the distributors pay more or something? I guess as time goes on it gets harder and harder to be profitable with the Neo-Geo system? The alternative of course is greed, but I'd like to think that this is not the case at all. :cool:

With SVC Chaos I was told that cost increased due to Capcom royalties. For SSV I’m told that the higher price is due to the strong Yen vs. the weak USD. Hope this helps.

Yeah thanks, they're making you pay more, that's what I was wondering.

Sometimes I see people get mad about recent Neo-Geo games because they think we're being milked for more and more money unneccessarily. At least if they feel that way then it'd be nice to be able to say that it has nothing to do with YOU.

Both of the explanations seems to be realistic. I don't if it's true but when you see that 1 euro = 1.18 dollars, you can have strong differences with import products.
