    Why would a game developer want that?

      Why would they want residuals on digital resales?

      Is that a serious question?

          Incentives already exist within NFT communities, would be trivial to add them into new game sales.

              Ah yea, sorry, misread.

              Some have offers of airdrops (free items for owning an NFT at a certain date/time). These range from in game assets like skins and accessories, custom art, or potentially access to other IP/licenses

            So you’re telling me a company would rather take one sale and two resales than 3 sales?

              Depends on what the market dictates and the consumers drive the market.

              NFT games already exist, you can already buy and resell them. NFTs often have benefits of ownership as well as benefits of being first-owner.

              Whether or not the technology gets picked up by bigger studios I cant say, but imo its better for the consumer.
