This is what I (as well as others) keep saying but it is being ignored.
As a gamer and consumer, for as long as I have been able to comprehend/understand the concept of ownership when buying a product/goods, I''m seeing others (gamers) willing to give up their right to own said product just for the sake of saving some money, and convenience which is a cover up for comapnies to control the consumer.
It's not so much the end of of gaming, but the end of retro gaming and collecting (like you said). In my previous post from another thread, I have said that retro gaming is going to be like an sough after prized fossil that is only found in small quantities. older games are going to be of even greater value by collectors cause they're going to be even more nostalgiac and rare.
Excuse me for being "old fashioned" but I like to have all my games not bound to anything but me (ownership). If this is the route the industry is going then all I can do is either accept it, or leave. I choose the latter.....Given that if Nintendo also follows this path or goes out of business.
