Nintendo copying Sony yet again!

I hope the cards are durable like DS/3DS cards, since like DS/3DS cards I probably wont ever put them back in their case.

Well you are missing out either way. The game is amazing. Endless replay value.

Well a lot of it will depend on the game of course. But there is something to be said for having the game as a physical release, especially with extra like instructions and whatnot, as well as the ability to play it on your TV as well as on the go. These are all little things but nonetheless add value to the game. For this reason I could see myself playing 10 or even 20 bucks for certain indie/smaller games on Switch on a physical media, as opposed to spending half that on simply a Steam DRM digital purchase, as long as they're of quality and offer a decent amount of gameplay. 

I think it's cool that some of these indie devs are potentially releasing their games as a physical release and I hope it becomes a trend with the Switch. It's a way to raise their value as well as their clout in a cluttered marketplace. 

Cases like that, with all those extras, are great for collectors and for people new to the game. It probably won´t cost much, either.

Besides, we´ve long passed the point of saying that indie games are "small". Some of them required a lot of effort from their developers,  and sometimes they provide more hours of fun than many sick "AAA" productions.

Even if that was true which it isn't that isn't the point. The point is such games are available elsewhere often at a higher performance level for a fraction of the price.

Seeing a Switch card size, I find it silly that it gets such a big case. So much empty space, especially with the Zelda one.

I thought the cases were kind of too big for the sizes of the carts. However, after seeing the clear case and the inner art I understand. That Zelda artis nice.

Higher performance level? A five year old, entry level laptop from Walmart can play most indie games. lol. Playing Isaac on a PS4 is complete overkill. 

Also, choosing the Switch version means physical copies and game manuals. That's nothing but win. 

Let's see how much win there is for such a title at retail prices. If all things were equal lets say $4 on Switch, Steam and Android then the Switch option would be fine but that isn't it's pricing. Personally I wouldn't want to tie up the cartridge slot with a minor title like this. On the Vita I tend to have small games on flash storage and a major game in the cartridge slot when carrying. Yes indie games can be enhanced on more powerful hardware like any other game. I don't know this game that well but suspect faster loading, higher resolution display and decent ergonomic controller will enhance playability even on very basic indie games and certainly indie games from pc may have higher technical requirements than indie games originally from android or ios lets say. 

Even if the Switch succeeds as hardware I still feel there will be rejection of these minor titles at grossly inflated prices. I give consumers more credit than pay huge differences in prices for the same games available elsewhere. Most people understand value and don't have infinite disposable income. I also believe their very existence will be offputting to many people who will realise the cost of buying games for the Switch will be excessive even for ports of older titles afnd simply not purchase a Switch console. New consoles need new original content not shovelware.

Hahahaha what? Most of the time Sony copies Nintendo. Also there aren't so many ways you can design a small little cart so copying is a strong word
