No mention in the article that New Super Mario Bros 2 will be released in the eShop. Having such a big game straight from Nintendo being digitally distributed will be interesting. It might give the eShop a boost in people checking it out.
I'm a little disappointed that NSMB2 will also have a physical release. But I can understand Nintendo not wanting to take such a risk.
I've been spoiled by the iOS app store. Buying once, playing on several devices. Also the ability to delete and redownload whenever. I won't consider buying a big title like NSMB2 digital-only until they fix that stuff.
Eh. Nintendo's purpose is to get people playing fun games. Withholding games to get users accustomed to jumping through the hoops of their unlikable download process sounds like two wrongs not making a right.
