Nintendo Finally Embracing Digital Distribution

Nintendo is planning the digital distribution of their retail titles this fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2013. This news comes from Nintendo’s recent financial statements. Here is the quote:

“Forecasted sales units of Nintendo 3DS software and Wii U software… include the quantity of the packaged software by means of digital distribution.” Nintendo has not traditionally included digital sales in their software sales numbers but is now making an exception for downloads that have a corresponding packaged version.

It is nice to see Nintendo FINALLY embracing “current technology”. In my opinion, I think that the majority of gamers will still prefer physical copies of titles but this is a major draw for publishers.

Uncharted Trilogy Now Available For Playstation 3 From Amazon France

Quick Update: Amazon France has revealed that the Uncharted Trilogy (some of my favorite games of all time) is now available for purchase on the Playstation 3. No date outside of France and select European regions has been given and the game currently retails for 63.48 euros.

I would imagine at some point, this collection will be available everywhere and if you have missed the series at all and currently live in France, purchase this game.

In case you missed our Uncharted 3 review, click the link and give it a read. Here’s hoping this is released everywhere.
