This is a part of the link Ive posted which shows how ridiculous this is:-

It's been confirmed that Resident Evil: Mercenaries 3D for the Nintendo 3DS is a game that once finished, cannot be reset for complete replay. According to both the U.S. and U.K. game's instruction manual "saved data on this software cannot be reset."

Basically what Capcom has done is make Mercenaries 3D a one-time play affair. Once you've unlocked all the goodies and played the entire game, you will not be able to erase the game's save data and start fresh as if it were a new copy. Consider this: lending Mercenaries 3D to a friend, a little brother or sister will be worthless because they'll only be able to continue playing the game with your saved settings and create their own.

How the hell will they get away with this?

They'll get away with it because no matter what companies do to ruin games, tv, films, sport, etc... people still pay the money.

Are people so stupid that they will buy this knowing that they will be able to play it only once?

There should be an anti-campaign "Leessen carrrfoollee - you weel play zees ônlee weunce!"

Hope none buys it

Wow and I thought some of the ways people were making you play through the game more than once were getting silly (karma systems, achievements, etc.) but only letting you play it once is a pretty big ripoff.

I guess they got tired of kids whining about lack of replayability in games, so now it's no longer an issue...

how much are they selling it for? Got to be lower than normal price

They'll continue to market add on's and make their money that way. This is a shame as Resident evil has been, and still is, on of my favourite gaming franchises ever. With RE4 being damn near the top of my all time lists

There should be an anti-campaign "Leessen carrrfoollee - you weel play zees ônlee weunce!"

Why would the French even bother?

Wonder if it's worth buying a sealed copy when it's cheap, then keeping it for years, see how much

it grabs on Ebay.
