• Well first of all I mostly game on steam, pc and steamdeck. And I don’t even know how that would work with discs.

  But I do have a switch 2. Switched over from the switch 1, where I could just move my library over.

  Anyway, the pros of digital? Convenience, pure convenience. I can go to the nintendo shop and see what there is and buy / play it instantly. I don’t have to go to a store or order online and wait for it to arrive at some point.

  Then all the games I bought are in a list where I can switch between them instantly. I don’t play in handheld so I don’t have get up and find the game in the pile of games that I need shelf space for. And I don’t need to fiddle with the switch that’s hidden behind my tv to switch out the games.

  I don’t sell or lend out games. And honestly if I finish a game I rarely play it again, and if I want to I don’t remember not being able to play a game anymore cause of digital shenanigans. Besides not having the console any more. I even gave away my wiiu to my nephew with mostly digital games and he could just play them.

  So FOR ME PERSONALLY, I just don’t want physical. Like I said “I understand why people would prefer physical”. I am just lazy.

• Kind of ironic how people here love steam but hate digital gaming. I just like the convenience of having my games in 1 spot.

• Yeah I get why people want physical games, but it just has too many downsides for me.

  Getting downvoted for saying I don’t prefer physical games. Classic.

• Yeah let’s fire people before we know if the new system even works. That’s a great fucking plan.

  Of course the people making these decisions never get fucking fired, and are in fact the ones that could easily be replaced by ai. In fact skip the “i” part.

• I have no idea how many people are mad but ign wrote an article about it. Just saying that this is a big 6 hour nothingburger compared to all the other shit rockstar pulled. Somehow they are still on a pedestal.

  I really hope netflix will lose more subscribers than gain them because of this. But people keep on rewarding rockstar for all the shit they pull.
