retail. i like to keep people employed and of the street.

There's a fine line between off the street and of the street. 

Depends on the game, if it's a game from a franchise I am a big fan of, then I buy physical through online stores mostly since retail stores are very expensive where I live. Otherwise I buy digital.

Mostly retail, specially for console. On PC is mostly digital for obvious reasons, but I never buy a digital game at full price, they don't usually have the right value in my eyes.

Mostly retail, few cases the digital version where the digital version is insanely cheaper. PC I do all digital, but I sort of hate steam right now, so I abandoned PC.

On PC: 100% Digital

On consoles: 95% Retail

almost all digital nowadays. the only retail games i buy are 1st party nintendo

In my country the official prices are ridiculosly high so the prices on the eshop (I only play Nintendo games for the moment) are attached to that, I tend to buy my games on the "grey" market were the prices are the same as USA or even lower, so no money for digital.

I always buy physical when available

Always physical, unless digital is the only option and even then I might wait until the game is heavily discounted depending on the effort put by the publisher, for example:

- Capcom did try with Ace Attorney, but the games weren't selling enough physical copies for them, they went digital on 3DS and I bought AA 5 and 6 at full price.

- Nintendo of America never put any real effort in the Fatal Frame series, FF IV wasn't localized for the Wii and FF V got a digital only release on a Wii U starving for games, I'll buy the later if it hits a price of $ 1.

For Indies or PC games on Steam, if I like them enough I might buy them at full price.
