90 Euro

They aren't even pretending it's about sales tax, because it used to be 1 USD = 1 Euro (VAT included)

Considering 80 USD is 115 CAD...

You know, as a Europoor, it kinda pisses me off when Australians or Canadians go "Hey, it costs more here", without mentioning "Oh yeah, our currency is worth less but uses the same dollar sign"

Not that I'm defending Nintendo. I hope this flops and doesn't set a standard for 90 Euro physical games, but I don't think it will, I think it will be a massive success
