Well then, couple years down the line, I'm looking for some games.

I notice that they have this 1 game for cheap that I didn't have the time/money for at the time.

There are no new copies, because they stopped shipping them.

I'll take the used one then. (Exactly what I did with TWEWY and Metroid Prime)

That is understandable, but games that arent even a week old getting sold used is completely ridiculous for developers and publishers

to be sold used it had to be bought new once. There won't be more used copies of a game getting resold than there were copies of the game sold originally. So publishers and developers got there money for it. There are many things that developers and publishers can do to reduce this most involve making consumers want to keep the game. Not forcing them to. However if the idea of used sales really made a publisher or developer nervous they could already go digital only.

Stopping people from selling things that they physically own is completely ridiculous for consumers.
