So Nintendo talking crap here, I mean go to a store with used games and Nintendo titles will likely outnumber most others. Way to combat used games is to make a quality title and add consistent post release support, mix free content with pay content. People will still trade in, but less of them. |
That was the point Nintnedo was getting at. Glad you have such good reading comprehension. I go to gamestop and Nintendo games have the LEAST IN STOCK. And most of the time have the HIGHEST used game values. Though it also just isn't about how many are traded in it is about percentage. A lot of Nintendo games sold higher figures than a chunk of third party and even first party titles from PS3/360 so of course you're going to see more, but the overall percentage still could be less when you put it next to the amount of copies sold. Still especially with the 3DS I rarely see many first party used games old. And it's even hard to find new Nintnedo games for it I went to get Animal crossing and it was sold out at pretty much all the game stores in my area. Gamestop sold over 100 copies of them. And that was in my smaller city. Walmart sold similar amounts. Target was sold out as well. Same goes for a few other retail establishments. Nintendo isn't far off. I doubt you'll see many used copies of games like Animal Crossing floating around for a long while.
