Maybe it's not about the paycheck or price or need and all about not being a retard idiot bitch and over paying for children's toys? Hmm...

OR you just leave the carts in a carrying case.

These aren't loving cds. Also since puyo puyo isn't a huge release it'll probs have decent resell if it's as limited run as it seems, plus the gimmicky keychains.

Also lol at the poverty argument, no wonder you don't buy carts because you have nobody to share them with. :smith:

That would be true if this were something like the DS where games are only available on carts. Anyone who wants PPT will just go to the eshop and buy it. The physical cart would only have value to collectors.

The physical copy will get cheaper over time though if it's a normal release, and if it does turn into a collectors item it'll fetch a larger resell price. Eitherway physical wins.

Yes and it's also only 30 bucks. Amazon prime or best buy gamer club pre orders are 32 and you get some cute keychains too

it's pretty heartless to use autism as an insult tbh, especially considering how many autistic people end up in exactly those poor financial situations due to how their condition affects their hirability

It's fine let's just keep filling up our planet and destroying the ocean with worthless plastic cartridges and ridiculous packaging. And all because Nintendo nerds can't sort their lives out enough that they literally can't manage to survive without factoring in the hypothetical $30 they might be able to get back when they hypothetically get sick of playing Mario kart.

Meanwhile digital media and broadband internet exists and mk8 is less than 7 gigs.

gently caress this earth though! Fill it up with more plastic because you retards can't manage a budget. And I'm the rear end in a top hat :laugh:

I thought I looked it up and there wasn't a digital version to buy but that might be they don't have pre orders for it. I would rather get it digital and I can get it for 20 bucks cause I'm cheap as fuuuuuuuuck.

Amazon sometimes sells digital codes for Switch but they never offer a discount on them. They only discount physical releases. Though if the physical release was the same price and there was an Amazon discount, I might have ordered the physical PPT. I would really just rather always have it on my Switch though.

Hahahah I just caught up and I love the argument that I'm heartless because I don't consider people living paycheck to paycheck too. Spoiler alert: don't buy expensive entertainment electronics in their launch window if you're struggling to survive. The little green dude will wait to beat the pig man until you can sort your loving life out... and/or... until a few years pass and you can experience the same exact thing when it all goes on sale.

Although let's be real here... we all know which one of those two situations is muuuuuch more likely :laugh:

Loading a game in a shrine and having it reset the whole shrine and put you back at the entrance is indefensible and easily the thing I hate the most in BotW (just disable saving inside of shrines if you're going to do this for gently caress's sake). Run out of arrows doing some torch lighting bullshit near the end? Start from the beginning with no save-as-you-go convenience for you, you fucker. Also you better have a save from when you first entered since your newer save will reset your progress and keep your item use for an extra helping of gently caress You.
