Everyone has seen someone or done something illegal in their life. Wether it be downloading some hit new music or looking over the fence to see someone brake into the next door house.
Recently Nintendo has started shutting down illegal torrents who are selling the ROMs they are re-birthing on their Wii console. While this is fine and all. They also remove games from their list if people downloaded it pior to release.
Nintendo should provide demos of their VC games to the public, because that is what most people use ROMs as a ‘try then buy’. If someone loves the game as a ROM, they are more then likely to go out and buy it the next day. While there are some who try…then keep trying after they enjoyed it. Most do it the ‘try buy’ way.
Now I’m not going to be all stale on Nintendo for this whole article. Say someone downloads a dead licence, say a million people do, loved the game etc. Game Companies should get this data say of where the person is such as America and then the game they downloaded. They can use this information to release the games again or make another one in the series. Then they can select the most downloaded region to day view the game first.
