Apple has increased prices on the UK App Store, meaning that the common 59p price for games is no more. The starting price for paid-for games on the store is now 69p. Other prices have gone up too. £1.19 items now cost £1.49, while £1.79 games now cost £1.99.

Changes in other territories:

Australia: AU$1.19 -> AU$0.99

Japan: 115 -> 85 Yen

Mexico: $10 -> $12

Switzerland: 1.10Fr -> 1.00Fr

Norway: 6.00Kr -> 7.00Kr

It seems Australian gamers are the only ones who have come off better after the price updates.

Will this affect your game buying? Is 69p a big change or just something that will seem normal in a few weeks?
