    I've made a table to show how crazy these price increases are:

    Country
    Currency Old price New price Increase in percentage
    US USD 26.95 26.95 Microsoft HQ sits here
    Australia AUD 25 35 + 40%
    Brazil BRL - 99 ∞ They are paying too much now.
    Canada CAD 28 35 + 25%
    Switzerland CHF 23 23 - Rich friends and illegal money are here. So they still get a discount!
    China CNY 165 165 - Don't want to upset the biggest growth market
    Denmark DKK 149 180 + 20.8%
    Europe EUR 19.95 23.95 + 20% This used to be the base price.
    UK GBP 17.95 17.95 - They were already paying too much. They still are.
    Hong Kong HKD 210 210 - They were already paying too much. They still are.
    Norway NOK 149 229 + 53.7%
    New Zealand NZD 32 40 + 25%
    Poland PLN 80 100 + 25%
    Russia RUB 1400 1900 + 35.7%
    Sweden SEK 169 225 + 54.31%
    Taiwan TWD 800 800 - No change
    Japan JPY - 3000 ∞ They are paying too much now.
    Korea KRW - 30000
    Average increase (not counting ∞/-): 30.5%

    If you haven't bought Minecraft yet. This should be enough incentive to pirate the game from here on out. Games should become cheaper over time, not get a 30% price increase. Screw you Microsoft. Screw you Mojang

    Converting USD price to RUR gives 1800 roubles, not 1900. Interesting.
