No, it's not a proper measure to get rid of used sales. I as a user I want total freedom over my game. If I played the game, beat it, and then want to sale used I should do it without restriction.
As I never had a Gamecube (and now I have a Wii) I'm buying from e-bay the best gamecube games used of course. What would it happen if the Wii has this prevention to play used games? I would be pretty much screwed because gamecube games new are nowhere to be found at a reasonable price.
So yeah, to me the used market is not benefical for big companies but this happens with everything and I don't see companies (other than game's companies) whine about it.
Note: In my country a new PS3/Xbox/Wii game (and recent title) can be as much of 500 Pesos which is roughly 125 dollars. While the same used game (we don't have Gamestop) is 200 Pesos (47 dollars)
