On the other hand, that could be a sign digital versions consistently can and do sell at full price. Even long after physical copies go into bargain bins.

Lum fan.
Because people are lazy and saves gas and whatnot. And the kids of today think digital downloads are awesome and physicals are relics. I've seen so many forums topics come up about the lack of physical releases. Bombarded with replies like "what are you like 80?" And "I'll only play a game til it's finished, done with it forever, so I don't care."

Some things they'll reprint, some they don't, and some they keep out in a slow irregular trickle which is where Ocarina was and now it appears to have stepped up. I think the problem with ALBW is that people went into it of an older group thinking SNES game sequel, but instead they got an overly unbalanced and easy open world game that didn't sit so well and the legs kind of got bruised shins if not a cracked bone. Ocarina though was just so well made in story and places within the world it has the balance to replay or play for a first time on a 3DS coat of paint and not realize it's far older fare from the 90s as is still stands tall. I think with the love over the Zelda 3DS's and Majora being begged for then selling as it has so far got them to ramp up more production of Ocarina to make some more bucks. But don't think Nintendo wouldn't stop making games if they could push digital, they cut NO breaks and no price difference with a real game and a real rental of sorts stuck on your system as they cost the game to me and you but a crapload less to them as a server time value download. Fiery is also right part of the problem is the younger kids who have no respect for what goes into a game and holds no value with physical property because money grows on trees and you can just dump or erase crap when you're done with it because the next cheap (or not) digital high is a click of the button away. Some may realize in time they're pissing heaps of cash on nothing but a moment, they'll regret it, and others won't.
If anyone needfs one I'll get you one for retail.
Canadian retailer claims new wave of Nintendo Selects reprints coming, including everyone's favorite not-rare "OMG RARE" 3DS game.
For Wii, Wii U and 3DS, Donkey Kong returns on all of them, Super Mario All-Stars also (knowing Nintendo, its probably just the game without the extras of the original print, for the same price)

This is good to screw scalper and give to people who really want it
Totally agreed. I saw a stash of them at Best Buy too all during the holiday season side by side with Majora, and even after the slots in the cardboard kiosk displays still had them so it wasn't just a Christmas thing looking at it.
It's a nitpick but I hate they call the stuff Nintendo Selects, but I guess it's more accurate. The old Player's Choice was their choice, million+ sellers all, and this time around with Nintendo and their problems moving stuff some are just Nintendo Select(ed) to be part of a re-release lot in a cheaper packaging. It gets more product on the shelf that's more guaranteed to move while filling holes in a launch quarter until more product of quality arrives.
Who needs words when you got a picture like that right? I wonder, will the scalpers now try and play the 'OG' release tactic to get a few extra bucks or finally give up.
