Yeah, limited physical release is dumb but sensible seeing as they're technically limited by nature, even if they're cutting a popular game stupidly short. Limited digital releases are absolute nonsense.

Nobody is struggling to scrape $60 in 6 months. Everyone is complaining because it's dumb as shit and anti-consumer to make the game limited-edition in the first placeNothing wrong with leveraging FOMO.

Try this exercise Itll absolutely be released again. Like its been mentioned, this is the Disney vault strategy. If it just remained available, it would eventually need to drop in price to sell copies. By keeping it in limited runs, they can sell it for $60 at a demand perpetually. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nintendo keeps their shit at full price essentially forever, unless it flops immediately. Yes, some games remain at full price for the most part, but games go on sale from time to time.

I don't get why they're pulling the digital copy from eshop, but not recalling physical copies then? My local Walmart, Gamestop, and Best Buy have several dozens of physical copies on the shelf. Even when it released, the game did not fly off shelves.
If physical copies are going to remain available after March 31, why get rid of the digital copies at all? I think Nintendo is severely overrating the demand for the game. --- IRON MAIDEN IS MY RELIGION! ... Copied to Clipboard!

It preys on people's fear of missing out and causes them to make purchases that they might otherwise be hesitant about, all for those sweet dolares. It's honestly disgusting and it saddens me that most consumers turn a blind eye to this and buy it anyway, therefore ensuring that we will get more situations such as this in the future. If there's more money to be had in it then I wouldn't be surprised if they made everything a timed exclusive in the future.

I bought the 3D all star collection because at the time I didn't quite comprehend how much this business practice disgusts me. And I also didn't assume Nintendo would make it a thing beyond this one product. I was so excited at the start of the Fire Emblem 1 localisation trailer and then by the end when it said it was a likewise limited release, I was just annoyed to heck. I now regret buying Mario All-star and have not bought Fire Emblem even though I want to. And I will not be buying any further product Nintendo pulls this shit with.

I already buy Nintendo games less than others because they rarely drop in price. Stuff like this definitely holds me back.
The fact that Mario 3D All Stars doesn't have 1080p minimum in docked mode for all three games is completely baffling, and they still charge $60. It's wack. I know the Switch is a handheld in a lot of cases, but I feel like they could easily do so much more but just halfass it because they don't give a shit and know people will buy it anyway because Mario. --- Shall we gather for whiskey and cigars tonight? ...

I mean you can argue they have a right to not sell their products to consumers. But they shouldn't act shocked when consumers then resort to other means to obtain those products.

We get it. They have every legal right to do it. That doesn't mean they aren't utter assholes for doing so - it just means it's not illegal. There are many things people / companies can do that are assholey but not illegal.
