Licensing issues in NA called for an extra 100 points to be added to the game.

Meh, 100 points extra for a bad game. I think that's made up for by the fact you get just about everything else cheaper.

This is probably when someone should point out that, in real money, 600 points in the USA is still cheaper than 500 in the UK.

Very good point actually, I dunno why I didn't think about that in my above post!
We're all poor over here because of the amounts we get charged for things, so think yourselves lucky :P
