Why won't companies easy re release old games or at least make very old ones free?

I’m no business graduate but you’d think Nintendo and Xbox who have closed their marketplaces on specific consoles I.e. 3DS market and 360 market.

There are some absolute bangers on there and old games in their possession as well. Since some of those games are still cherished, you’d think they would be helluva easy to profit by re selling or making a super duper old game free!

That would up both their PR and Profit.

I mean sure, there IS emulation, but we’ve all seen Nintendos stance on that clearly and their own product is a bit shoddy at best, subscription seems half baked and the mini consoles were overpriced pi zeros. Looking at you PlayStation Classic.

So how the hell are these giant firms not realising this despite the retro aesthetic of games going up these days?

Have you looked at the Nintendo store? It’s got tons of old games in there for the switch from various old consoles.

Playstation often has old games in its store, over half the psx library was for sale on the PSP and ps Vita.

You won’t buy the new one if you’re still playing the old one.

But maybe you’d want to play the new one after liking the old one.

glitchdx ,

no, you’re not allowed to like the old one anymore. You must buy the new one. No questions, only buy.
