This is the issue with modern consoles in general. They make it impossible to backup anything. The WiiU may have failed as hardware but that let you backup all your save files and patches etc to an external HDD. Even if I went all digital, the games are tied to your console, so if your console dies so do the games if the online service is shutdown 10 years later and I cannot redownload them onto the new one. There is a reason why a lot of Nintendo retro games go for big bucks now because Nintendo gamers are collectors first and gamers second. They are proud to own and hold their games. Even here in Aus, when Wii had the most sales in Aus compared to PS3, there was still way more PS3 games in second hand stores than there was Wii games. The sooner these idiot 3rd party companies realise this concept with Nintendo gamers the higher their sales will be. I have passed on so many games on Switch simply because I had to download one of the games, or half the game etc. Why can't they just use smaller carts and more of them if they haveto spend money on the larger ones? Charge me more, i'll pay it if the full content is on one lol. Now I have played all those GTA games before on my PC so it isn't like I desperately need to play them again. But you know what it would have been cool to have them for my Switch in my collection |
With modern consoles in general? You can backup all patched games and local saves on an external HDD (or SSD) on Xbox One and Series X|S as well. |
shrug, can't get my hands on one lol. but if you can that is fantastic.
wish Nintendo left that freedom with the Switch like the WiiU had
