“Historically, we’ve been very agnostic, right? We go off what the consumer prefers, and take that into account very heavily. We also have a platform that was just launched. We’re barely just over a year into NS2. It’s got both digital and physical – that capability. There’s no plans to ditch physical. We know how much the fans like it as well, so our position has been to be agnostic.”

    Does no one here realize that none of their first party games are key cards?

    Yes, key cards suck shit sauce. Which is why my library is all first party games on the carts. Or I just pirate them on PC if I can’t get a physical. Easy.

      I agree that’s great. There’s ONE game though…

      Pokopia. It’s a spin-off, sure, but it’s as quintessential as a nintendo game can be. It should be a physical release without the game keycard bull

      While an actual physical card is preferable, the option for a keycard is at least better than the shit that Playstation is trying to pull at least. You could at least trade or sell the keycard.
