Nintendo has been fined 149m euros (£92.1m) by the European Commission for trying to rig the computer game market.

The firm and seven distributors have been found guilty by commission anti-trust officials of attempting to keep prices artificially high in some EU states between 1991 and 1998.

That comes to about $147 million in U.S. dollars. BBC has more (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/2375967.stm).
