Why can't Nintendo start making demo disc's! Sony do, Microsoft do, just because it is a differant sized disc, doesn't mean it is IMPOSSIBLE to make a demo disc for the official mag!

demo disc's are good but you do end up paying 5.49/5.99 for the mag.
Still I suppose 90% of people would pay that for 3 demos+

What about the GC versions of 3rd party titles? Couldnt EA do a demo disc of their titles for the GC and get a mag to give it away? The magazines sales would be phenomenal.

I bet that if more people had been given the chance to play the first day of Pikmin for free, they would've been hooked and bought the game.

Nintendo don't have to ruin future games, they can just give a taster of existing games. They already do that at shops and it wouldn't hurt them to allow magazines to promote their games!

Demos can be bad sometimes, I played a UT2003 demo on PC and it wasn't very enjoyable at all. I bought the game anyway and it was excellent, the demo just didn't do it justice. Renting a game before buying it is much better than getting a demo.
