I think it's a good Idea as long as there isn't a disc format. If I never have to worry about a scratched disc I need to replace, I think that will be a even trade. Who cares really about GameStop.

The thousands of people that work there, and may lose their job if this happened.

Probably the first and only time I both want Patcher, and expect Patcher, to be right.

Destroying the pre-owned business will destroy videogame sales.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

i can see it happening and patcher has been wrong with almost all his predictions. remember Wii to fail? 3ds to fail? nintendo to not make anymore consoles, the ps3 winning last gen. lol yeah hes to be trusted. *rolls eyes*

For once I hope Pachman is right!

Pachter read the rumor wrong. He thinks PS4 would block used games altogether.

Of course they won't feature them right away, they will introduce them later on. i already predict the first game to have them will either be from UBI or Activision



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I am with you there. This seemes to be well-reasoned and thought through. Maybe if it does not invovle Nintendo, he does all right.

I remember the predictions in 2005 -- and he is right about Gamestop not handling such a console.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

For once Pachter is right, but only because it's COMMON SENSE!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
