1st of all its not $50 more, our dollar, isn't equal,

2nd, almost everywhere has tax,

3rd, the problem is our dollar was worth 60 cents to the american not so many months ago and now its worth 82 cents now, anyways, $200 is roughly $163 US

$13 isnt a big deal.

what i meant here was that the Gamecube, at least i thought, was $169.99(you can get it now for $100), and that DS costed $30 more without tax.

hope that a bit clearer now
So, does anyone know when the price could go down comparing to the GC.

Eep. Which province do you live in? Here in Alberta, we dont have PST so we only pay 7% GST :)
