I'm going to quote one of my friends here:

A lot of studios would LOVE to do this honestly.

i cant see anyone who actually goes on gaming forums buying this, maybe the hardcore resident evil fan, or un-informed parents buying for there kids.

ill admit, i use a R4 card on my DS-Lite, but only because i hate buying DS games to never finish them, i dont see any harm done, shouldnt a game only be worth its full price for actually beating it?

Wow, that's an incredibly dickish move on Capcom's part. As per the article, you can't even replay it properly yourself. This is gonna hit the bargain bin in a hurry once the general public knows.

6 posts in and someone is already talking about stealing games, which will lead to this thread's ruin. FYI a lot of people (ie non-enthusiasts) don't finish games they buy, so in your scenario hardly anyone would pay for games.
