| VanceIX said: Why do you care why I have two 3DSs? The point is that I do. (And if you really must know, I have a launch regular 3DS and I bought an XL recently). And neither Valve, Sony, or Microsoft dictate which consoloes your purchases can be tied to. All of them allow you to use your purchases on different consoles, as long as your account is connected to the console. Nintendo only lets you have your account on one console at a time, and forces people to go through their arduous repair transfer if the console needs to be replaced. If you don't want to or can't go through with such a repair, you're out of luck, all your files are forever gone. If I lost my 3DS, I can't ever get those digital games back, whereas if I lost my PS Vita I can easily get another one and just redownload my collection. Sony, Microsoft, and Steam are much more flexible with their digital offerings. They control all the content (Newflash: they control your physical content too, you really think just because you have the disc you own the game? You only own the physical media, not the game itself. Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo can easily cancel your ability to play the game on a console if they wanted to. Don't believe me? Read your EULA.), but not to the point where they breath down your back like Nintendo does. |
Again, why complain. Besides you bought a 3DS XL and did not transfer your normal 3DS to it. That's your fault, not Nintendo's. And yes I did know they control physical offerings aswell. you didn't need to be rude about stating it also.
