You guys are nuts. I only download games on my Wii U. It's not near as big of a deal as everyone makes it out to be.
Fans of the series are annoyed because now they can't buy the cart used for 5 bucks, and then resell it.
Ok, I can understand that point. I just didn't think of it because I don't have a habbit of selling my used games and I always buy games new because I want the developers to make money off it and if I buy used Gamestop is the only one making money.
I don't resell ANY of my games, that's not why I want a cart.
With nintendo download games you are totally at their whim if you lose your system or it is destroyed. Ask dr metts how awesome it is to not have an account system.
