Is this not essentially a glorified Game Key Card then? Like what is the point of this, you can't play the games off that card, so it's essentially a meaningless piece of plastic. Why would you want to pay even $5 for that versus 75 cents for a Game Key Card cost. That's not $1 anyway. If this is the supposed "great option", I can see why Nintendo just passed on this as its stupid. You would just create a problem where people would be asking "why can't I just run the game from the cartridge then? So this is just a fake cartridge then basically?". |
I updated my prior post for clarity on the difference.
It's not $1 but that is a consumer facing price, of course Nintendo/publishers could go notably lower.
Do you also think physical games on PS5/Series X are stupid and just the same as gamekeycards because they require installs. Again it seems like you're actually just not interested in the topic of game preservation and just here to tell people to get over it. Your energy could be better spent elsewhere |
Essentially yes I think those are stupid too. But at least game discs cost only 5 cents to print, even at a mass product price, you probably cannot get any kind of cartridge storage option for Nintendo that would be under $4-$5.
You're not even "preserving" anything, like the full game is not on those discs, it pretty much never is lol. The whole situation is stupid.
The Playstation 6 Portable or whatever is not even going to have cartridges period like Steam Deck they're going to go all digital.
