[QUOTE="Mark W**a, post: 34032, member: 1196"] It's very common to see popular XBox Arcade games make it to disc, eventually. Dreamcast Collection, Konami and Capcom discs, Q Entertainment Disc, Namco Collection... they come out about a year/ 2 years later, it's just a number of XBLA games on a disc. That's all it is. They've done this since the 360 was in it's infancy (IIRC Geometry Wars and a few other games actually came with 360's, on disc, back in mid 2006). It's added sales, added awareness. I've read that as many as 30% or more of Xbox 360's sold are never connected to the internet. That's a lot of potential customers. I've said it before, a disc with 16 or so tables for 40$ is a great idea. Pinball Hall of Fame was a good seller, despite really bad distribution (not sold at Gamestop/Walmart/Bestbuy IE major retailers). With the right publisher, they could make good money with a disc.
