Oh. So they want to continue overpricing digital games. I understand why Gamestop wants that, but why Nintendo?


Its the same content...it should be the same price.


It's not. When you buy physical you get the disc, the case, ability to do whatever you want with the game after you bought it (lend it to a friend, sell it).

not to mention that everything sold on PSN/XBL/whatever nintendo has, they save money on:

1) Making the physical things, aka the disc, the case, the manual and such.

2) Shipping all those things to retailers.

3) They get the extra money that retailers normally earn when they sell games. (The big three get it)
