Forced scarcity makes people think its more valuable than it is, which theoretically boosts sales beyond what they wouldve been.

Could be they want to release each game later separately on a the eshop for a higher price than bundled? I personally think they are just morons.

Depends if you can download the owned game after that point. This IS Nintendo we're talking about here.

They're giving you six months to buy it, what's the issue, you can probably get it digital too if you're worried about scalpers right?

Because they're one of the most anti-consumer companies in the whole of the tech world but are somehow immune from serious criticsm.

i could maybe understand limiting the physical release to a set # of copies but limiting digital is just anti-consumer. they're trying to 'scare' people into buying the game.

Here's the thing in the past when games like Marvel vs. Capcom were removed from stores it's because the company no longer has the rights to sell it. Nintendo owns Mario, there is zero reason to do it other than to make things worse for consumers, a consistent theme across Nintendo, the company that also complains the most about piracy despite making it as hard as possible to actually buy their games.

Looks just as worthless as their re-release of All-Stars on the Wii given that Dolphin can provide a superior experience to whatever overpriced crap they pump out.

The games are likely still going to be sold after that date but they'll just be separate instead of bundled

Still dumb though

Fiscal year ends in March, and they haven't had much this year (though what they've had is AC which sold gangbusters), so they want to cram as much revenue as possible before March. That's capitalism for you.

If people even have the slightest bit of want for the game, they will be forced to purchase it.
The one I really don't understand is the limit on the Mario battle royal

...the issue will be for anyone who ends up owning a switch after those six months are up?
Ah yes gotta pretend that people who haven't gotten a switch by now matter when it comes to limited run games, the outrage is real my dude.

"man if only nintendo didn't fuck me over by releasing a game for a console that has been around for the past 3 years!"

you guys are fucking insane when it comes to dumb shit like this.

Wait, DIGITAL is limited as well? That seems... very odd.

Its insane that you're defending anti-consumer policies. Do you work for them or something?

This allows them to release the deluxe version with Galaxy 2 on it once the 6 months are up.

you literally have no valid reason to defend this practice so idk why you're doing it

I mean you have literally no reason to attack this practice either. Why can't we just let capitalism decide if it's worth $60 or not?

I preordered a physical copy and will probably keep it sealed, just in case I can sell it for profit later on.

Although full disclosure (to myself), the other time I did this was with Majoras Mask 3DS, thinking it would be worth a lot at some point. I still have it sealed and it aint worth shit

lol at me
