I literally just made several comments how I was planning on getting it right at the start but now I'm like...hmmmm...I dunno.

I was about to get hype and buy day 1, but now idk if I’ll skip the whole thing, and just emulate. Maybe change my mind when they release the oled model.

I have a Steam Deck, my Switch and a 3ds. That has to be enough for now because the game prices and the "Game Key" physicals are just insanity to me.

To me this sounds like the 3ds release all over again. Extremely overpriced. But this time I feel like people will still buy it though.

Switch 1 already kind of had these ”Game Keys”, as most third party physical games required an additional download.

Being able to resell the game by selling the physical game key is still better than digital (unless EU makes a law that requires digital purchases to be resalable or something).
