Please, would you kindly try to read posts in this thread. Thank you.
I never said they should give him more money. I said with their solution he will spend hours and hours of menial work restoring fractions of his digital library and that 50$ doesn't look like a good compensation for that.
Proper compensation would be be restoring the library in full, intact and with no additional work.
I am not angry, i'm just sad and shaking my head.
And in fact why shouldn't i explain how stupid this setup is? Because Jon is happy? Jon got coverage on some gamer themed TMZ rag and then his problem was resolved? Who even cares about Jon? I sure don't.
In fact i don't even care about Wii U games locked to system. It doesn't matter that universal accounts shouldn't be there. They should, absolutely. It's like washing your hands. Gaming 101. But now, i don't really care since my Wii U is fine and i don't ever plan to sell it or something.
I'm more concerned about lack of universal accounts on 3ds. I already lost one 3ds with $200+ worth of games (not counting ambassador), not really keen on repeating that experience.
