Rutibex posted:Cart lovers, do any of your physical games have a manual? I own a bunch of physical Switch games and none of them came with a manual. The slot in the box seems vestigial, rarely used for some advertising or a code card. Binding of Isaac had one that looked like the NES Zelda manual.

It really depends. Outside of BoI, I think the only physical Switch games I've got that contain a manual are from Limited Run Games. I'm sure the other boutique labels include them too.

If big 1st party Nintendo games like BotW and Odyssey and Dread don't come with paper manuals then I have to conclude that no one else thinks its worth it AND its probably a pretty hefty chunk of change on top on the other production costs, no reason not to sidestep it. Manuals made more sense 30 years ago when you couldn't just watch a youtube video about how to find all the turtles or whatever

Did GTA Trilogy get patched? I'd rather play it in bed and not have to deal with Rockstar's launcher on PC.

Oh man oh man oh man, I finally got Metroid and this map is so wonderful. I make maps for a living and this map is lovely. It’s easily the star of this entire game so far.

Butterfly Valley posted:I would do this instead of buying a bunch of poo poo that you have no idea if you want or need yet. Use the switch for a while, see how you use it, and then figure out what accessories would make your life easier and get them. I never use my switch tabletop for example and so don't need anything to help with that. Nor would I want a grip because the regular switch is perfectly fine for me comfortwise. I thought about getting a portable dock but realistically I don't travel enough to places where I have use of another TV to warrant that. Hell yes thank you for the advice. I was mostly looking for accessory ideas because I'm being badgered for Xmas gift ideas by the family. From my understanding the OLED has a shatter protection later, not a full on screen protector, so I'll be getting a tempered glass one for sure. Regarding controllers, I already have an Xbox one controller.. are those 8bitdo dongles legit or should I just get the official Nintendo controller/8bitdo pro 2 for the gyro?

I have enough digital games to fill up my 512 GB card and more than 40(?) carts flying around, sure wish the 1TB micro SD wasn't so expensive still.

I feel like I have a metric ton of Switch games and am not anywhere near this, I have to ask, is this like 90% bloated JRPGs and Atlus weeb stuff? That’s the only way I can imagine hitting these numbers.

b_d posted:skipped two pages to say i always go digital and when that poo poo becomes unavailable in the future i will simply pirate it. god is smiling Yeah that's my take on it. By the time stuff getting taken down off the digital storefront becomes an issue, emulators and pirating should be more than viable, so I don't sweat it.

Feels Villeneuve posted:those mini cases people made are so cute If they were officially sold like this instead, I would probably buy physical because then case makers would make little pockets to hold the cute widdle cases That said, I've preferred digital since the advent of Steam.

I've gone mostly digital too. But it is nice when you see a game on sale or your friend can let you borrow one. I found my copy of Blue Dragon and then got bummed when I remembered no disks on the Series S.

That’s the only way I can imagine hitting these numbers. Seems like Switch games are fairly petite, yeah. I was considering getting a 512GB card for my Switch during BF, but then realized I have such a massive backlog of games spread over my PC and Xbox that I probably would never get around to filling more than 100-150GB worth of games at any given time that I'd actually play and/or finish on my Switch. So far I've only beat Dread and am working my way through Astral Chain. After that I have to finish up Trials of Mana, and then Hyrule Warriors DE, and then Breath of the Wild, and then I'm probably gonna revisit Transistor to see it on the sweet OLED display. Those games alone will maybe take me like a year to get through (lol) with all the other games I play elsewhere. That said, I can see the benefit of hoarding digital games if you tend to play a lot of different things and travel a lot I guess.

I love everyone in this thread, both digital and physical game-havers alike. That said, I recommend going physical if you have kids/multiple players. If you ever make the jump to a second Switch, you’ll want physical games because the non-primary switch can only use the primary profile to play downloaded games. So on the second Switch my kids have to use my profile to play any downloaded games. They only use it for Smash so it isn’t a big deal, but physical allows them to use their own profile and cloud save data across both devices.

I have a bad history of selling a game and rebuying it again six month later because I miss it. Buying digitally stops me from doing this and save me money in the long run

At least you're not the goon who was selling their switch every time they finished a game.
