If I want to lend a cart or disc to a buddy I can. I can't do that with a digital download. If I want to take a game into EBGames and get some credit for it and trade for a game, I can. I can't do that with a digital download. Digital Downloads are also limited to how many devices it can be installed in. What I do like is I can compare the prices of a retail disc and digital download and sometimes I'll go for the cheaper of the two.
If they had launched with Monster Hunter Portable or come out with one during the launch window, Nintendo would of moved a lot of units. In Japan anyway.
