Other publishers should be taking notes...

EA is biting their nails. 

I hope Sony and most other publishers take some notes from Nintendo's book. That's certainly the way to go!

This is one of the reason why I've been a fan of Nintendo since t he 80s. =)

I want to see what they could do with DLC for Zelda U. They need to Ura Zelda/Majora's Mask that bitch.

I brought this up to Jizz and Auron just yesterday. Developers have big chunks of DLC that come out around the launch of the game, DLC that you know has to have been made within its development and was held back to get more than the $60 purchase, and those are the type of games I'll rarely if ever purchase.

Nice to see companies like Nintendo, Rockstar, and even Bethesda creating meaningful DLC that is released later in the games life. Games that give you your full $60 worth and then the DLC adds even more. DLC that gives you a large amount of content and can be compared to what expansion packs were in the past.

How so?

Isn't the retail core Mario Golf have the same number of courses as all past Mario Golf games?

DLC should always be add on only as optional gameplay, EG infamous first light.

what happens is dubious dlc that's suspiciously made available early on, it's clear it could have been part of the game but is held back

Keep it up. I'm liking it.

That's then way you should do it, EA, Activision, Ubisoft, and Crapcom!

That's a load of BS. If they made a full game then they would used the max amount of data that can be stored on the disc. Its common sense people
