I own the literal copy of DKC that I bought in November of 1994 with my own Christmas money. It provides the exact same experience that it provided back in 1994 (it has not been altered or updated by a publisher or developer one single time), I have 100% control over it, and there is a direct, emotional connection whenever I look at, or hold it. Digital cannot do any of this for me.

Right but suppose that one day your cartridge just spontaneously decides to combust or something. Your access to the game remains unchanged since you can very easily find a ROM online and play as though nothing happened. No need for a powerful PC or anything. That's my point: your access to a game is independent of whether you purchased the game digitally or physically. Agree or disagree?
