Nintendo prekida prodaju digitalnih igara za stare konzole, nestat će stotine naslova

Iz Nintenda su najavili kako će sljedeće godine ugasiti eShop funkcionalnosti na 3DS, 2DS i Wii U platformama, te u vječnu mirovinu poslati stotine igara.

Loše vijesti jutros nam donosi Nintendo. Najavili su kako će od trećeg mjeseca 2023. godine ubiti svoj eShop za sve vrste 3DS i Wii U konzola, nakon čega se na tim platformama više neće moći kupovati igre u digitalnom obliku. Kako je eShop već ugašen na staroj Wii konzoli, Switch će nagodinu postati jedina Nintendova platforma na kojoj se mogu kupovati digitalne igre.

Utješna je vijest da vlasnici digitalnih igara na eShopu neće izgubiti te igre – i dalje će ih moći ponovno preuzeti kad god to budu htjeli. No, kako su brojne igre za 3DS i Wii U dostupne jedino u digitalnom obliku, zatvaranje eShopa znači i njihov trajni prekid prodaje na Nintendovim platformama u slučaju da ih developer ne prebaci na Switch.

Iz Nintenda poručuju kako je gašenje eShopa prirodni dio u životnom ciklusu jedne konzole nakon što ju korisnici počnu koristiti sve rjeđe. Što se tiče Nintendovih sadržaja koji će trajno izaći iz prodaje gašenjem eShopa na 3DS i Wii U platformama, poručili su kako trenutno nemaju planova učiniti ih dostupnima za kupnju u drugačijem obliku te da će sve klasične sadržaje ubuduće dostavljati preko pretplate na Nintendo Switch Online.

Drugim riječima, posjedovanje starih Nintendovih igara u digitalnom obliku odlazi u povijest zajedno s eShopom za 3DS i Wii U.

    I onda se krenu čudit što ljudi softmodaju njihove konzole a sami to traźe.

      Pretplatnicke usluge bi mogle u budućnosti potpuno zamijeniti fizička izdanja jer fizikalija polako umire

    Baš pljuju po Nintendu šta je donio tu odluku

    “Nintendo is unhinged.”

    “Well, even though you buy downloads, it’s just a rental.”

    “Okay, then make it possible to use the Virtual Console on the Switch.”

    “Inevitably, this day has come, hasn’t it?”

    “I’m able to trust Sony more than Nintendo.”

    “You won’t be able to play Nintendo eShop exclusives anymore…?”

    “Ridiculous. This makes me only want to buy from Steam.”

    “Does this mean they’re saying, ‘Buy a Switch?’”

    “At the end, you won’t be able to play anymore? That’s terrifying.”

    “This is thinking little of your customers.”

    “In the future, the Switch will also be cut off.”

    “They’re abandoning the people who purchased the Wii U.”

    “This is reckless. That’s the issue.”

    “This is garbage.”

    “Sayonara, my Wii U.”

    “Knock it off with this shitty monthly subscription for Switch Online and bring back the Virtual Console.”

    “Even when the PSP was over, we could run downloads on the Vita, but here all our digital purchases coming to nothing is harsh.”

    “This is happening too quickly.”

    “If we can’t play previously purchased games, then give us a refund.”

    “You can still buy digital games for the Vita. Plus, last year, new stuff came out. The way Nintendo’s hardware is just thrown out to the wolves is truly awful.”

    “DLC is crap because even if you buy it, the ability to play it will vanish.”

    “And this is why I hate the download versions.”

    “I’m still playing the 3DS! Stop fucking with me!”

    “And now I see the importance of buying the retail package version.”

    “When the next console comes out, the same thing will quickly happen to the Switch, and that’s scary.”

    “The Switch will likewise be quickly cut down. Remember this.”

    “It’s come at last. I wasn’t waiting for this, though.”

    “But all the games I bought…”

    “What a waste to end such a wonderful service for game consoles.”

    “Will there be a sudden price job for the package version of the games?”

    “It would be good if they kept it going forever. Endings feel so lonely.”

    Niti jednu Nintendo igru nisam odigrao na konzoli nego sve na PC-u putem fantastičnih emulatora.
