Video games are purely luxury items though. You need access to medication, you don't need access to the latest and greatest games.
Luxury items are already sold using value-based pricing rather than cost-based pricing. If I make $100 and have to pay $10 for a game, that's the same relative value as if I made $1000 and paid $100.
Of course, that doesn't mean you don't feel ripped off if you're paying the higher price. I certainly do when I get charged €60 for a game that in the US costs $60 (which should be €53.54 at current exchange rate).
