Again, it's subjective. Some people think walking five feet to their console to change games is a life changing, death defying trial of physical endurance the equivalent of swimming the English Channel. I, on the other hand, think it's a piece of cake. The way people act these days you'd think those of us who lived during the 80's were fucking terminator cyborgs. I mean, can imagine having to actually drive to the store to buy a game? And then on top of THAT? We actually had to change games every single time we wanted to play a different one! I don't know how we escaped with our lives. |
It is not subjective.
The effort to get up, walk to console, change out disc, walk back to sitting area, and start game is explicitly more complicated than going to using fingers to select the new game to launch with a controller or touch screen.
You may consider it not a big deal to get up and you're right, comparatively speaking to other physical activities, that is easy stuff. However, it does not negate the fact that moving between games in an all digital world is a night and day difference in complexity to physical games. That's not even counting the need to store physical games, etc.
I take it you still use cassette tapes too? After all rewinding the tape is only one button push. Or how about a more modern scenario. Do you still use CDs? I mean changing out discs while driving is a super simple with my caselogic visor disc holder.
Your only real subjective argument is preference to owning a physical game.
