That's right. Apparently, during the period 1991 to 1998, Nintendo kept prices artifically high, and have now been fined £92.1m. That's the Eternal Darkness marketing budget gone. See the full story at

It's all about the money, really. If they did a nationwide cut in the price of games, everyone involved in the production of said games would be worse off, right?
