The problem with this is that Nintendo will start looking worse at retail chartz. Thus giving fanboyz ammo on a regular basiz. Release WW HD 2 weekz0rz b4 retail. Game sell 400 000 on the 20th. Media Create comes a week after the physical copy ships. It shows WW sold 20k. Fanboyz laugh about how even Zelda bomba:D

Yeah, pretty much this.

And then it'll be "lolz, nobody buyz downloadable, physical sales are 99%, bomba bomba bomba!!1one!"


Who cares about those douchebags? Here in the real world, the people who actually make games will see more real money and enjoy a more direct relationship with the customer rather than being dependant on intermediaries. Digital customers are better customers.

Bragging rights are nice, but don't let them get in the way of good business. Yakuzaice raises the real concern: How many digital incentives can Nintendo line up before alienating retailers?
