  i buy physical because i genuinely think nintendo is one of the last good game devs remaining. but switch 2 is just download cards. i will not be purchasing it.

    “one of the last good game devs” brother there has been so much drama with nintendo being a god awful company the past year ALONE.

        you can say that about a lot of games and their devs. tons of great indie games out there.

      But just judging by quality of games they are still the best

        have you seen any of their pokemon releases the past years? its actually embarassing how bad the games are in terms of quality and polish, for a game that is the biggest IP in the world.

    i think that’s a myth, switch 2 will have real games.

    It’s already happening on other platforms. Doom dark ages only has something like 28 megabytes on the disc.

      I’m not even aware of any ps3/xbox360 games that are fully contained on discord. Maybe Orange Box?

        AFAIK, most PS3 / Xbox 360 games will play and function with just the disc, an internet connection will just let them download updates to the game.

        It was PS4 and Xbox One where the discs became glorified physical download codes.
