        PS3 games are too big and vita doesn't have an emulator.

          Does it require me to look up a guide and go find it in the drawer? If so, that is way too much effort.

      Announcing the closure of eShops for their previous systems is like an announcement for people to start buying their stuff for full price before it's gone. People will gobble that shit up good even knowing they may have to pay again on a different Nintendo system.

      For whatever reason on Sonys consoles, no one will ever bother with purchasing anything on their digital storefront even with multiple games being accessible still via cross-buy or cross-platform.

    I know it's gonna be ported onto the Switch. I'll buy it again.
    I'll buy it digitally, so when the new Nintendo system comes out I can re-buy it for a 4th time on that system.

    Seriously though, I think the people who hasn't moved on or isn't a casual has hacked their systems.
    Nintendo never had a proper account system and I don't think they will or even need it. People(casuals and collectors) will still rebuy everything as long as it's on Nintendo. A lot of the excuse like the Switch is, "it's portable, take my money AGAIN."

    Mainly because Ninty Autists backed up 100% of their digital stuff and then some. Can't get too mad if hacking the systems are simple, and all of it's stuff is readily available. Meanwhile Snoy Autists only has a little over half of it's stuff backed up. They're not as diehard or diligent as Ninty.

        N2DSXL, if you don't care for 3D snag one.

        thanks, think ill pick up the new 2ds this weekend then. seems to be a good value and i can probably easily resell it if i dont like it
        i heard the battery life is quite bad on it though?

    The problem with shutting down stores is taking away what you already bought. That's not happening any time soon.

    After several months of maintenance they've even brought the DS/Wii stuff back online which shows their commitment to keeping you able to download what you own nearly 10 years after the bulk of online shit for the system has been fricked off for reasons beyond their control.
