Another thing I'd say is that it's quite surprising how quickly you can work through the HR levels with online help. People generally tend to be very prepared to grind through the lower stuff with you and also repeat some of the quests to farm stuff for better weapons/armour etc.

I've managed to almost get to HR6 with help from randoms online. And it's been very enjoyable indeed.

Im pretty sure its 30 bucks on the eshop right now....

The gamepad really helps with finding time with others around. The kid or wife can be watching their shows on the TV, while you get some time on the game pad.

its still $79.99 on the eshop, but i am in australia,and we often pay more for games.

Of course, its perfectly understandable for goods that have to be shipped so far and all the costs that accrues.

BUT NOT FOR DIGITAL!!!!

That is highway robbery. X[

Question:  Is that in australian dollars?  Also, is that the average price for new games there?  I ask because I recently learned that national minimum wage in australia is a little more than double the national minimum wage in the US, when both are converted to the same currency.  I know its not the topic of this thread but its just something interesting I'd like to get the full story on.

yeah our new games are $79.99 at games stores and from eshop. WIi games, ps3, ps2 and other past systems have almost always been priced at $99.00. i recall my dad getting me TMNT for the NES in like 1990 or so and it was $99.

 

i have travelled to the US twice and both times the shopping is crazy good for me, everything so cheap.

 

and yes, i think our wages are slightly higher. i manage a store, and if one of my staff members does 38 hours, they will earn something like $840 as a casual employee. thats about $21 per hour plus a bit extra on sundays about $30 odd i think.
