Meh - software developers are always limited by something or other. That's why they get paid to optimise things. The BluRay drive on PS4 is limited to 50Gb, and a quick Google for SD cards seems to be about $10 for 64 Gb. So that's the just price you'll have pay for a physical release over digital on Switch.

Probably worth it if you're really into a hobby IMO: you get a manual and box, something to display on your shelf, and you can resell it in future.

I just think its devs/publishers getting lazy as their main focus is ps4/xb1, so they half ass it just to get it out on Switch, which is why stuff is going digital only and they arent bothering with carts.

the title doesn't seem to be really reflected in the OP, where's the actual impact on sales based on the title?

"The cart limitations of the Switch is really starting to hurt the console"

Nope. Wrong.

the title doesn't seem to be really reflected in the comment, where's the actual part where he mentions sales in the title?

I think you're trivializing a not-so-trivial problem by saying that.

Better digital only than physical only... of course, I’m slightly biased... haven’t bought a physical game in almost a decade...

Carts are expensive, they get more expensive based on storage space. Frankly, publishers would obviously like to avoid producing them.

I would imagine when he talks about hurting a console the idea is that it's being hurt as a product which would make it sell less, I do not imagine the OP thinks the console is a feeling piece of hardware that actually suffers pain! I could be wrong of course, perhaps he thinks it has an advanced AI which can read comments on the internet and feel physical pain from them.... I know after being on this site a while I certainly do.

Eh. Bleeding edge AAA non-nintendo content is not exactly what Switch was ever going to be known for in the first place. If you are a Switch exclusive owner then you don't care necessarily whether the content is on the Switch in the first place or whether it is a compressed lower res version. You bought it for Nintendo, because Nintendo.

If you want the higher res, best version of a AAA game that surpasses the limitations of what is currently possible with the Switch (cart size or otherwise) you buy a PS4 or XBONE. Does it perhaps tilt a _few_ peoples decisions in buying a PS4/XBONE first before buying a Switch? Maybe. But that ship sailed a while ago and there is virtually no turning back at this point. The Switch is going to do just fine and with a few more SKUs will do even better. I might even buy one eventually if the right SKU comes along.
