Basically this. We pretty much get screwed on everything. DVD players didn't get to around $150 for another 3-4 years, I know because that's around when we bought one.Originally Posted by Icarus Moonsight
Take this Digital to Analog converter on Amazon. It's basically $45 US.

The same thing is $90 Canadian at The Source(formerly Radio Shack), it's the only place that carries it here so that's what we had to pay as it's supposedly the best one currently available to us(there's one better model from another company that's only being sold in the US). Even though our money is worth more now, we're still paying a higher price. At the end of August we're switching over to digital signals so we needed one.
Regardless of that, was it cheaper to buy a Gamecube and a DVD player or just a PS2 by itself? The Gamecube launched at $199.95 which is also supposedly more than your DVD player, for $299 you could get a PS2 with a DVD and CD player built in.
