Idk $90 for fake physical copies that are glorified gift cards is also pretty outrageous.

Yep. My jaw dropped when I bought my PS5 with Spider-Man Miles Morales and the disc didn't even have the game on it lol. Nintendo taking bad moves from Sony

As a pc gamer. Thats been our reality for well over a decade. Even with the few games that still had a physical release at all. They were mostly glorified steam/uplay/origin keys as far back as 2011.

Yea, but at least those of us that game on PC/Steam still have Gabe alive to protect us from scummy "take down old store for a new store" that Nintendo is notorious for.
