Why Nintendo’s Game Inaccessibility Only Hurts Them

I am a lifelong appreciator and fan of Nintendo games. Consoles have been part of my household since the N64, yet few of those games remain here today. Not only is it difficult to have kept older Nintendo consoles, but individual games have an even tougher time. Game cartridges get lost, broken, and forgotten. Then when the feeling hits, you have to break open the box and wipe the dust from these weathered old companions. Every year, the chances of a new issue with it all come up. That is only if you were lucky enough to have had any console or cartridge when they were regularly available. The DS series of consoles (most recent predecessor to the current Nintendo Switch) have had its online store cut off and physical cartridge prices spike. Demand for older Nintendo games is still skyrocketing, but production has waned. <a href="https://medium.com/@elvia.myerswriting/why-nintendos-game-inaccessibility-only-hurts-them-c3bde9851e5d">Website</a>
