Thats a pic of the QOL

But thats not necessaraly the only device that Nintendo its going to make for its QOL iniciative.This could be another.I dont know, Nintendo is trying to get people back to its consoles and decides to ditch physical copies?It just dosnt make sense.

They could use cards as a physical medium as has been speculated here ad nausem for like a year plus. 

Or it could just be digital only ... but really I don't even mind. That would mean hopefully cheaper game prices since you're effectively paying about $20 more to get a physical game from the store. 

Unless you live in a cave, most people have internet access of some kind these days.
