| AHYL88 said: Unless the game is only available digitally, I still will stick with physical, but only purely because physical copies of games are often a lot cheaper; this is especially evident in the UK as one online retailer for the past year has been very frequently selling Nintendo Switch games for a rather significant 30% less (with a code) than standard retail price right from launch. It was noticeable from last year with Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury which launched at £35 after a code is applied, way less than the usual £50, and has become a benchmark ever since and still is today with Pokemon Legends: Arceus. |
I’ve been told by a number of Europeans that live north inside and outside the EU that physical games are frequently substantially cheaper, so this doesn’t surprise me. I’ve also been told from some people I know that live in Eastern Europe that even some PC games get limited run physical releases in those countries for a variety of reasons (poor internet infrastructure, regional pricing, customer expectations, etc)
