But that absolutely makes it a "digital vs physical" issue. This is done with physical media all the time in the form of going OOP. The difference is that you can still get any game in the library of an older console. You may have to pay up the wazoo, and might have to get a new save battery for it, but you can get it. Many/most of these DSiWare games are now lost to potential new players forever. Sure they were probably mostly shovelware crap but the hidden gems are gone for good too.

I can guarantee you it is easier to still get those digital games than it is to pay out the wazoo and buy a new save battery for a physical copy.

Also, physical copies are finite. If a game is rarer, is a "new player" really going to pay thousands of dollars for a game that probably takes 2 hours to beat?
