On the other, oh god 119,000 is still so much money for basically nothing.
The initialKonami Memorial NFTcollection was for 14 Castlevania doodads auctionedon OpenSea.
Altogether they sold for 49.1 Etherum, which in real money was roughly 119k ($162k).
People haven’t bought the videos and songs and art, only NFTs of them.
“The purchaser will not, by purchasing the NFT, obtain intellectual property rights (e.g.
“Thus, the purchaser may not use the data linked to the NFT (e.g.
reproductions) for commercial purposes.”
Well, spending 18,500.
So what does your money get you?
The next item in the terms inadvertently lays it out.
Oh and as a bonus, Konami will list your name on their website for a few months.
That seems unlikely, doesn’t it.
Especially afterPeter Molyneux’s next game sold 40 million in ghastly NFTs.
I’m not sure.
Ah, what horrible questions the future brings!
I am quietly hopeful that the inherent conservatism of giant publishers will make them reluctant to truly embrace NFTs.
Maybe we’ll just see more junk likeUbisoft putting numbers on hats.
Maybe the novelty will wear off soon and they’ll move onto another post-launch monetisation scheme.
I’d like to suggest: edible games.
I can promise you it’s less daft than whatever you’re paying NFT consultants for.
