Just leave it like that.
The most charming thing about this game, is that it is gonna turn into a rare collectors piece

Considering how you get more characters that would be hilariously annoying.
OT: I don't see how Freemium would help W101 at all. All Nintendo can do is hope for some wonderful word of mouth.

They are trying to push it on the eshop with a main page presence, Club Nintendo coins promotion (80 coins I believe for eshop version and probably at least 60 for retail), and on their main site. They just haven't done any regular TV ads for it. I wouldn't know because I mainly watch Netflix and Hulu. I can tell you that Ubisoft is advertising the hell out of Rayman Legends on Hulu. Shame that really doesn't appear to be helping much for their sales on all systems.
Actually there is a game that sort of works this way already on the Eshop.. (Tank Tank Tank) but I will say this.. going by what I have seen on Amazon.. I think the game is going to do well in the US.. and make up for the lack luster performance in other countries... but actually Nintendo hurt sales of the game themselves by shipping too few intentionally..

Predictions made by gamers concerning the current Nintendo line up of games.
Pikmen 3= Little Bump to nothing. (Got Little Bump)
Wind Waker HD= Won't sell anything (The explosion happened here and at one time 4 Wii U games was in the Amazon top 100)
Super Mario 3D World= Won't help at all looks cheap. (Currently the most sought after Wii U game and continuing the Wii U increase.)

They pulled a Fire Emblem. It was very tough trying to get Fire Emblem on the 3DS back when it came out in most of USA. I eventually tracked it down by having a guy from Gamestop call other locations. The location had one copy. This made a lot of people give up and buy the digital version. So Nintendo can semi take the risk of not shipping too many physical copies in a game they are unsure of being a success or try and lure people to the eshop. Ask Smeags... He bought Fire Emblem digitial because he probably couldn't track down a physical copy. Hell, I think new copies on Amazon a little after launch went above retail price due to higher demand than actual copies available.

I know... I remember trying to get a copy of Fire Emblem from Amazon... when it first came out.. I had to wait what was it?? Like 2 month's .. I do agree it is good to get the digital sales.. but the thing is.. it also hurts sales of the physical copy.. and basically if Nintendo keeps doing this.. people may just say forget it...(Not everyone likes Digital... I don't.. especially the way Nintendo is currently doing it... I usually never buy digital unless that is the only way I can get the game.. D&D, Pokemon Rumble U, and Crimson Shroud for instance) If Nintendo is trying to get more people to use the Eshop there are better ways of doing it.. (For instance making everything account based not tied to your system.. putting the Eshops together at least on the VC etc. etc)

You gotta defend your Nintendo systems with your life.
How is D&D?
Nintendo ID is coming to 3DS. Nintendo knows you purchased the games if you have a Club Nintendo account linked. If you called up and bitched enough I am sure they would set you up on a new system with your Club Nintendo account (all digital purchases able to redownload). Reminds me I am going to go purchase Retro City Rampage on the Wii Shop channel. Shame the developer won't see any money because it won't cross sale threshold (old WiiWare policy)... Or will it? He will make money off the 3DS version at least!

I enjoy D &D.. it could have been better though.. it does have various bugs in it still... (For instance sometimes the controls choose not to respond when your trying to get through the Inventory... and the Turbo Bug.. where everything speeds up for no apparent reason) and the Online has a tendency to get laggy.. with more than 2 players sometimes... you would think with all the time it got delayed.. these would have been fixed.. but NOOOOOOO... needless to say unless your a big time fan of arcade beat em ups.. or D&D in general.. I would put off buying it until it goes on sale.. cause I doubt Capcom will fix this..
Anyway have fun my friend.. Goodnight everybody...

I think anyone who is thinking twice about getting this game; will have a heck of a time finding a physical copy of it. I think Nintendo is going to push digital download (ironic as they have the smallest storage) this generation; the 3DS is an indication of such: FE, LM, etc
