Grargar: A reminder; when a currency gets stronger, flat-priced games become cheaper (in your local currency) as the conversion rate is more beneficial for your currency. The opposite is also true (a weaker currency results in more expensive flat-priced games).
Regarding regionally-priced games, their value is always the same in their local currency. For instance, regardless of any kind of fluctuation, Wasteland 2 Digital Classic will always cost €40. The only things that will change are the value of the fair price package and the equivalent $ price. A stronger local currency will increase the value of both, while a weaker local currency will decrease them.
Ahhh, good times when the $ was weaker than the euro, you could save a lot from online purchases.... sigh....Regarding regionally-priced games, their value is always the same in their local currency.
