If that's enough to get you going for a game, then go for it.
This goes for any corporation or company really.. I understand that its sometimes a pisser to have to buy games, but its an ongoing cycle that'll get better with the help of some good old fashion "fan support."
The way I see it:
1. You buy a game you think/know you'd enjoy
2. They make money
3. They invest said money to make more games
4. ??????
5. Profits all around.
As far as the buying of the games goes I personally have owned each of the Nintendo 1st party titles on the console and just overall felt let down by this generation of Nintendo consoles (goes for both Wii and DS) they have gotten my money a couple of times over on these games (I have bought at the least two or more copies of each of the games). My biggest issue was that as far as the Nintendo 64 and Gamecube were concerned I didn't really find a game I didn't like on those systems where as the Wii and the DS just feels more like a shovelware console (Wii more-so than DS). I may stand accused of downloading but the games I have downloaded and "bootlegged" for the Wii as previously mentioned I have owned. Take now for instance right now I own a 3DS and even if a flashcard were to come out it would be highly unlikely that i would purchase it. I just hope that Nintendo picks themselves up from a lackluster launch and gives us a nice amount of titles to choose from and buy.
