Seriously Capcom? Seriously?

Many people were asking Capcom "Seriously?" after they announced that they would be using one save for their games...forever. According to Dvice, Resident Evil:Mercenaries 3D uses this one play only feature. Once you play, it's over. There is no restart, and no erase. Now it is understood that game manufacturing companies make no money off of used game sales, but Capcom has crossed the line and went to the next town with this one save feature. Besides, doing this might decrease ALL of Capcom's sales, as people don't want to buy a game they can only play once.
My argument? At least it isn't pirated. And game manufacturing companies actually make money off of the initial sale (the game is used, so it was bought once before). If it were pirated, they wouldn't have made money at all, as there was no initial purchase. Also, games at Gamestop are inexpensive. Call of Duty: Black Ops at Gamestop costs $40.00, where at other places it costs more.
Now how would you feel if you only got $25 from a $40 sale because Treyarch wants money from a sale of their game? Bad huh. And if the game had only one save? Really bad! For the buyer! Just making a point. So you know what? This is a message to Capcom: GET OVER IT! YOU ALREADY MADE MONEY OFF OF THE FIRST SALE, SO YOU GOT YOUR MONEY!
Thank you for reading.
