New games only

Doesn't sound like they were thinking really. The used game market helps the new game market. Perhaps someone will buy new games, if they like the used ones.
We won't even get into companies that rent games, & that small profit group.

I am not a console gamer, I prefer PC, but have been looking into console games more recently. There's a good reason not to buy!
I picked up a refurbed Xbox a few years ago to play a game with a friend, & subsequent new titles. I have been thinking of a PS system, because there are some cool games, but may re-think if the next generation is going to limit my expanding a gaming library. Often I'll rent or buy a used game to play it, or a friend will. If it's fun, one or the other will pick up another copy, & we'll both buy expansions (which is pure profit).

Just my two cents.
