Ah, I see your point - you're saying that having more digital copies will reduce scarcity.

But I'd argue the "collector's item" value of a physical object is actually the primary driver of inflated prices. I mean, we can all emulate the games instantly if we want - scarcity is a non-issue even with those GC games.

Honestly, it doesn't make any difference. Look at the 3DS and Wii U eShops closing recently, with so many games no longer available in any legitimate format. You absolutely cannot rely on Nintendo's digital store to allow you to play anything 10 years from now.

The only store that you can reliably trust is GOG since everything there is DRM-free and can be downloaded locally.

Ok, officer. I'm open to discussing stopping committing crimes for now, but obviously we can only talk if you agree I keep all the money and land I stole and don't have to go to jail for the thousands of people I killed.

Deal?
