Let me ask this then, if games given free with mk8 are considered a sale, should games given free on xbl/ps+ be considered sales, too, since you had to buy the subscription to acquire them?

PS+ games are long term rentals though, you have to stay subscribed =P

Not sure if MS is the same

and the free game with mk8 is technically a long term rental,  too,  its just a longer term 'till they shut down the servers" at an unknown point in the future. 

point being is its a digital only copy,  far short of leaving it installed forever and hoping your machine never breaks,  youre at the mercy of network functionality to have access to it. 

You'll never lose your downloaded titles, even if Nintendo goes out of business. It's not a long term rental.

 

digital copies are not temporary.
