I don't understand what you mean here...? So long as you can redownload the game on the original system -- just as so long as you can plug in the cartridge/disc into the original system -- then you still have ownership of your game, regardless of physical or digital. I suppose maybe you could argue that it is more likely physical games are given backwards compatibility than digital, though that wouldn't change the fact that you can still pull out your old system (or a new one if you old one is broke) and play it there.
