Starting March 27, you won't be able to buy digital games for the Wii U and 3DS. Video game archivists and fans are racing to preserve titles that may soon disappear.
Carts eventually burn up. Discs eventually decay. The dedicated hardware needed to play them eventually break down. The only true way to truly preserve games is through emulation and a lot of backups.
Best thing we can do is support physical whenever possible. Make sure it remains a big enough slice of the pie so that it cannot be out-phased.
Jailbreak and ROM it!
Typical nintendo
Jailbreak. With the way these companies act there's nothing to feel sorry about.
