Would consumer goods reflect the currency prices so soon?

Are you paid in yen or dollars?

Man, I remember the exchange rate was 115 yen to the dollar when we were there in 2006. Hell, it was right around that a few months ago, wasn't it?

err, this means DC is going to be able to buy more US games with his yen. Those wishing to buy Japanese games like It's a Wonderful World with dollars will be hurting a bit.

Although it only makes a significant diff if you buy in the sort of quantity DC does anyway :p
