@Nature boy
Fair enough, I'm certainly not looking to attack your opinions (apologies if it sounded as though I was).
Perhaps naively, I always assumed that giving away bonuses could only prove to be a positive for a company, I never really considered that in the bigger picture it could prove to be more of a negative than doing nothing at all.
I Live and learn though :o

No worries my friend. I actually enjoy discussing something intelligently with somebody. Sometimes that can be rare in a forum like environment. Rest assured I never feel attacked.
I'm livin' and learning too :)

As a loyal Nintendo buyer (and a *huge* Zelda fan), I'll be pretty disappointed if I can't get my hands on the disc. Do I have the games already? That's not the point - and I can't believe there are collectors here who seem to think it's all that matters (mind you they're probably just trolling).
Given that I'm the one speaking against the notion of the disk being a heinous betrayal, I guess it's fair to assume the trolling remark was probably aimed my way.. gee, thanks, damn me for not jumping on the bandwagon and actually trying to reason having a different stance on the matter.
Perhaps I'm a tad slow, but there were just a few simple things which I was trying to understand, namely..
Why is it that all the other bonuses, freebies, extras and reductions (incentives) which new users get from pretty much any other company running an incentive scheme and which are often for more considerable than this disk, are simply overlooked and considered acceptible?
Why is it that such notable demands of rewards for cutomer loyalty are only considered in respect to N, and not other companies who give the loyal customers nothing, often with less? and why is it that such isn't considered a betrayal by said companies.
(And if my past posts are considered trolling, this question is probably going to get me strung up and burned at the stake, but for what little it's worth it's not intended to be offensive)
When I buy a games console (any console), I buy it because I want to play the games on the system, I buy the console to play games. Thus I get what the company promised I would get with my purchase and because I got what the company promised, their only obligation to me is to ensure that there are good games to play on that system.
I don't actually expect them to be indebted to me, because I've gotten what I paid for, a gaming system on which I can play games.. it does exactly what it says on the tin (expression).
So why, would someone believe they're buying a debt, a contract of entitlement, and not just what they paid for and are given.. a gaming system?
NvrMore.. who's actually as big a Zelda fan as anyone else, despite not holding the popular viewpoint.
Lol, you are so completely full of yourself. I'll bet you were one of those kids people picked on behind the band hall in Jr. high. O_O

I don't have a problem with you Raedon, but this question is begging to be asked:
Why the hell are you digging up these topics specifically to shoot one line at NvrMore? Take it to PM's, honestly.

Naa.. When I get a strong hate for someone I put it right out in the open. This bitch has been pushing my buttons just because she won't see anything beyond her own warped perseption of gaming reality. And she threadcraps on everything I post.. case in point.. pissed off Joe to the point where he locked a perfectly good thread.. Because she has to keep spouting excrement from her fingers all over this board.. I hope she got a warning, because I'm going to need one with all the threadjacking I'm going to do around her for the rest of 2004..

I have to spend all day being mature, when I come here I want to enjoy a nice conversation or debate about this game/system or that.. Remove the Battlezone and this sort of shyt happens.. I swear I've never been on a forum that attracts complete asshats who usually dont even collect games..
