They did it for the Saturn back in the day when the software dried up and Shenmue II for the DC. This is the frst time though that I've seen them do it for a system that's not on life support. Hopefully with most current systems being region free we can see more of this. Even if it is for niche titles now and then. http://www.gamespot.com/news/6163074.html
Yeah, I remember those days. The Shenmue II thing was a welcome surprise..they even included a free boot disc with purchase.
