i can tell you i won't buy the NX or any Nintendo system that doesn't have a physical option. I'm not kidding, i've been through every gen since the NES and i have plenty to play without buying another system the rest of my life. I don't think Nintendo will do that though, they have a lot of focus on Japan. The same country where music CDs are still huge, capcom released REmake PS3 physical because they demanded it. In Japan selling games back for cash is widespread, and they don't really have rental stores.
digital only is probably coming eventually, but 2016-2017 is not the time, especially for the Japanese.


Don't worry. When nearly 75% of core gamers prefer physical, and 90% of your sales are also physical, you're not going to release a console that doesn't allow for that sort of thing. It would take some SERIOUS stupidity to try something like that. We're talking Virtual Boy stupidity level. lol
