Except you can't give away your iOS/Android devices with your account on it. They could access your emails etc. Removing your account will also remove the downloaded items. Plus they don't rely much on their softwares as they are free. They rely on hardware sales and their services fee like iTunes, Google Play music, streaming etc and royalties from tons of 3rd party apps. Also ad revenues. You can't compare Nintendo as they rely only on IP royalties, software/game sales and hardwares.

Nintendo doesn't need or is obligated to do so just because the other two is doing it. Sony and MS have subscriptions which makes up for it. Sony even said the PS4 if already making profits for subscriptions alone. And they don't rely on their first party games that much. Nintendo rely heavily on their first party softwares/games to sell. I'm not saying Nintendo shouldn't do it, I will be happy if they do. I said I understand if they don't.

I LOLed but it's true. And I don't have a problem with NNID being hardware-tied. It's Nintendo's DRM and I can understand that. I mean I could just download my games on other's console if it's not that restrictive and it would be Nintendo's lost. It could be abused.

Anyway, I regret a little bit that I didn't get the Windwaker edition Wii U. Now I can buy one if I wish to and not worry of losing my digital purchases.

Additional features are awesome. I guess this will be helpful for those upgrading from the basic model to the deluxe model.

Is the feature also available on the 3DS before? It would also be awesome for those switching from their newly preferred 3DS.

Edit:
Navigating with the other controllers is welcome since I won't need to recharge/plug the gamepad when I need to check the eshop.

Re: Areal Passes Kickstarter Goal, Yet More Peculiarities and Questions Remain

Good luck to you all who support kickstarter projects. There's so many yet there are only a handful who are legit or who will have a successful/good product in the end. Meanwhile, I'll just buy the final product if it's awesome.

I hate it that this is becoming the norm/trend. They'll just ask the backers for money first then add their money later even though they have the money in the first place. It's the backers who are to blame for those scam kickstarter projects and at the same time to thank for those legit kickstarter projects.

Yeah I agree on the FE bundle. I'd really like to play FE games They should have bundled Pikmin 1&2 on Pikmin3 too. Pikmin1 is still easy to find and they are about 10-20 euros. Pikmin 2 is about 70+ euros online used. I found one in GameStop outside our city but the disc has scratches and it costs 25 bucks so I held on and still searching on other stores. Anyway, enough with the offtopic.

I'd rather have Nintendo make HD on GC games like Eternal Darkness, Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Sunshine and Fire Emblem Path of Radiance since you can still play Wii games on Wii U. All I ask from Nintendo is release Selects version of FE Radiant Dawn, Pikmin 2, Xenoblade (already have this) since they are hard to find at a reasonable price.

It's in a local Super Store just outside Torino (Saturn store in Orbassano). I guess you can't get it unless you're near Turin. I went there to buy W101, Twilight Princess, SMGalaxy 2 and NSMBWii (Selects) at 20% discount (ticket) but only TP is available. Then I noticed a handful 3DS games at 5-10 euros each (no FE Awakening sadly and the others aren't on sale or doesn't interest me). I paid 8 euros each and not 10 as I've mentioned earlier since I have a 20% discount. Too bad I'm not into eBay, I thought of buying all the copies.

My new setup after reading this and experimenting:
DK + Pipeframe + Sponge + Cloud

It brings speed to 4.0, Accel to 3.0, 4+ weight, 2+ handling and around 4 grip. I don't care much about handling as you can drift easy on curves. But I'm not happy with the speed being merely 4.0. I wish I can bump the speed to 4.5 while maintaining 3.0 acceleration without using 2-wheels. Any tips?
