I've only ever owned (and still do) sonic 1 and 2 on mega drive alongside sonic and Knuckles and sonic mania plus on switch. I also have a master system card version of sonic one.
*I've also got sonic 3 on mega d but have never played it, I'm gonna try and do that this weekend.
I wish all games were physical only imo people are making a huge mistake giving away their ownership rights to their games. Yes i know about the whole 'its a licence anyway' argument which is bs because its only de jure a licence not de facto. Even with patches the vast majority of games still ship playable from the physical copy.
I'm a physical only gamer so i don't have any digital reccomendations but there are plenty of physical hidden gems that I've picked up over the last four years.Descenders the mountain bike game is great as is Horizon Chase Turbo the classic style arcade racer. There are many more too.
YESSSS! I'm not really a handheld gamer so that was the one thing putting me off buying the evercade (i never play switch handheld) so this is a first day buy for me alongside some of the cartridges.
@Luigisghost669 Yeah it took me ages to hunt down my copy. Got it from CEX in the end for £45. Its expensive for such an old game but worth every penny. I had to own it physically because its so good.
I've got almost 70 hours in on the switch version so far and am loving it. I started to look up Greek gods after playing this and Hades and have become intetersted in them.
I've got a physical copy and all the DLC so far and for me the game is BOTW lite but thats great because BOTW is one of the greatest games ever made and immitation is the sincerest form of flattery after all.
The game is easily an 8.5 out of ten for me and BOTW is a 10/10.
I reckon I'm selling my copy as its too hard for me and i can't be arsed to git gud. I like a challenge but MH is ridiculously hard i wish someone had told me before i bought it.
Spent 4 hours and rage quit. That's long enough for me to realise a game isn't for me.
Thank god for physical I'd be pissed off if i couldn't trade it in.
We used to call them shiny cards not holo cards! I'm sure I've got a shiny charazard somwhere in the loft i definitely had one as a kid. I swapped pokemon yellow for it which was a big deal back then. It can't be worth 250 grand tho no way.
I regret buying this game now i didn't realise how bloody hard it is. Its the hardest game I've ever played full stop. Good job i bought it physically so i can trade it in toward xenoblade 2 as i've just finished 1 and loved it.
@XenoShaun Physical will never die although it'll shrink, there's a whole culture around collecting and even if 90% of people were digital the collectors market would still be worth hundreds of millions.
I'd be getting it physically anyway so file size isn't really an issue for me. I've got 68 physical games and a tiny SD card with mostly screenshots and save data on.
If i had kids I'd probaly play it because it could be something to do together but as a 30 year old single man it seems a tad childish. I know I'm going to get downvoted but its just my opinion so don't get your knickers in a twist.

Re: Devolver Digital Is Publishing A Physical-Only Nintendo Switch Game

If they kill physical they kill gaming imo.
