Most things have been brought up here so I wont repeat what others have said but something I dont think I have seen yet that is in my mind a big plus to physical games - memories! I have a lot of memories with friends over a certain game some 10-15-20 or even 25 years back linked to a game. If I take a look at my shelf I see a game I may have forgotten but seeing it on my shelf instantly brings back fond memories. Also brings a lot of friends of mine together for good laughs as well.

That's a great point! When I see the physical boxes of my older games, i remember the times I played them first. I got nostalgic today when i packed my BigBox of Monkey Island 2 with its code-wheel and 11 floppy disks today (if I'm lucky, I get Ron Gilbert to sign it tomorrow in Cologne).

I don't have such nostalgic feelings for the retail or digital games I bought in the last decade, only for the older games.

Oh hope you get it signed! =) MI franchise is one of my favorites.

Yeah I dont really feel that nostalgic towards games the last decade either (obviously there are some that do), but it was the same with the NES and SNES, didnt feel the nostalgia until 10+ years after they were relevant so to speak. Nostalgia will come ;)
