Yes and no.
You have no legal right to distribute a game via ROMs, nor do you even have the right to burn it for personal use like an audio CD. So provided you are completely following rules and laws, physical games have some benefits for preservation over digital but also drawbacks.
The positives are that is a tangible object for display, collecting, lending, trading, selling, etc. But some drawbacks are the possibility of failure via scratches or damage, losing the item, taking up physical space, etc. A lot of mainstream games have mandatory internet downloads nowadays, so it makes the physical copy more pointless than otherwise. If you were actually allowed to burn the games and preserve them legally, digital distribution is much better than physical copies alone.
