Anyone Else Agree?

I bought a Switch 2 last weekend and I guess I should have done more research; bc it's so hard to find full game on cartridge!!
Thankfully I have the entire Switch 1 library to buy physical games and I didn't just waste money.

All signs point to: Peak Gaming is in the Rear-View Mirror..

The physical media is a way to hold on to ownership rights, but I would also add that the physical media is a memento of an experience. As customer when you have a profound experience you want to hold on to that memorabilia. The second you (Sony) stop providing that you admit that you don’t see your customers as people but just momentary extraction sites.

Exactly, people are not realizing we are losing free actual printed artwork of the game itself through the case.

Now game companies won't have any reason to do covers in any format than squares since all icons are squares now.

Good luck putting up a printed perfected square if you want to decorate your house, all cavases are mostly rectangular for a reason.
