@exerion76 Thanks for your reply. I fully understand that we're not required to buy the card to play the game. And if someone wants it as a collector, more power to them. My point was really complaining yet again about key cards. On the switch 2, except for Nintendo games (and a couple of others) we are being forced to digitally download EVERYTHING. I've bought a 1TB card for $200.00. But game publishers have mostly increased their prices to $70-80 for a game and then we have to buy the media to put it on which effectively makes it over $100 to play a game. And the console is $500. I'm not made of money. I'm upset because I can no longer afford to buy the games I would like to play. Anyway though I understand your point and hope I didn't ruin your day. Cheers!
Are you kidding me!! They ask to pay $80 for the game and then they sell us a $140 branded SD card to download it on. This key card thing really sucks! The publishers can't expect us to pay $220 to play a game.
I would like them both. I'm buying Metroid Prime. Metroid is on a cartridge. Assassin's Creed a Key-Card. I would buy it if the game were on the cartridge. I don't want to download the game.
I find the article to be naive. There is one reason why third party games are not selling. GAME-KEY CARDS. We hate them. I will not buy games with key-cards. I don't have enough digital memory and the idea that after spending $50-$70 dollars I then need to buy a $200 microSD express card! NO!! Let's see Cyberpunk which has the game on the cart is selling well. Everything else with key-cards are not. Publishers, get a clue! If you put the game on the cart we will buy it. Period!
