Wow. You're not going to be a gamer for much longer then eh? Physical media is slowly on it's way out. Major numbers of sales are happening digitally. As long as you stick with PS4 or Wii U then you can keep all the games on HD's if you are really worried about it. I don't mind the idea of the best of compilation, but who is going to publish it? It's a bit of a risk and there is loads of cost to go with publishing and distrobuting a format. I felt similar to you, but I decided to buy a 2 TB HD for my Wii U and back it up. I also have the deluxe digital promotion and there are tons of sales happening on the eshop so I get 10% back even on the titles already for sale so they end up being cheaper than actually purchasing them at the store in the most case. But that's just me. |
The day it goes digital is the day I'll go PC exclusive or until the console guys start offering an emulation style program as part of their new systems. ATM it looks like it is heading that way with Sony at least. Microsoft seem to be heading down the cloud power gaming solution which will be nichie till the worlds internet speeds catchup to demand require.
In principle I am not against digital only future but it needs to be open and easy and not a pain in the arse for me to retain what I buy and use it how i want to use it.
