Nintendo, Your Restrictions On Demos Are Just Silly

- I downloaded the demo for The Wonderful 101, and was surprised to find this message pop up telling me that I would only be allowed to run the demo 20 times. Now, of course I don't plan on playing a demo more than once or twice, as I'm sure most people don't. Which is why I find it so odd that Nintendo would put this restriction in place. If any game is good enough that I would play the demo more than 20 times, then I'll be buying it to play the full experience before ever getting to that point.


does this Restriction effect you?

The restriction effects me in this way. It just makes me think "Wow Nintendo, you really are stingey! You even impose a restriction on something which is highly unlikely for fear that someone, somewhere may get some joy from replaying one level multiple times, without paying SHOCK HORROR".

I find it embarrassing they would waste time imposing a limitation like this.

Especially when on 360 I have Wolf 3D, the original one, DEMO. Play as many times as I like, get my nostalgia fix, no need to buy. Hardcore fans of that game will buy it. No one is starving to death in a bus shelter because of me playing one level of Wolf 3D multiple times.
