What Nintendo should do is throw as many past games as possible onto the e-shop and then sell them in bundles like steam sales. They'd get my money and I have an aversion toward download titles.

Edit: Aversion from download titles. "aversion toward" is an oxymoron. See? I kinda know my own native tongue. Thank you 3 years of higher education! Smilie

Discounts on Nintendo's virtual store, FINALLY.

Of course I still won't be buying any... I have most of the games on cartridge and I don't plan on replaying them anyway.

The sales are marginal as well, like £1 off. Not the 50% sales I'm used to on XBL.

Add me on anything. I'm always looking for new friends/opponents/town visitors/chances to appear more popular than I actually am.
