There's more to Disgaea flopping than that. It's a really niche series, so pretty much everyone who's interested in it knows what a disgusting show of greed the "Complete Edition" is. So Disgaea 7 came out two years ago and NISA charged out the ass for the version with all the DLC. Then a year later the devs put out a free patch that added more content to the game, along with a new character as paid DLC for like seven bucks I think. But NISA withheld the patch and DLC from all existing versions of the game so that it could be held hostage behind this- a full-priced Switch 2 exclusive digital download. So I, as well as many others of what small community this series has decided that this series can go fuck itself and won't be touching this release with a ten foot pole. And normies sure as hell aren't gonna buy it because Etna's in the game. They shot themselves in the foot and then pissed in the bullet wound.

>>720952696
Especially funny considering Disgaea 5 sold gangbusters when it launched on the Switch, since it was there on day 1, it was one of the only niche titles available at launch, the series has always been better portable since you can grind while watching TV or whatever, and the price was low enough that veterans didn't mind double-dipping.

Disgaea 7 Complete is late to the party, overpriced, and spits in the face of its own core audience. One was "right place right time" and the other is like intentionally driving in the ghettos at 2AM blasting Moonman.

>being this butthurt about the key cards
The sole legitimate reason I can understand not liking is because you have to install the whole game to the the main storage, in similar fashion of the PS4 & PS5 games, instead of having the data into the cartridge in order to save space. But the whole autism over "you don't own your purchased digital games" is the biggest fake narrative. I still have the games I bought long ago on my Steam account created in 2007 and there are no instances of ever losing your stuff from the Eshop either.
>>
Limited Run is also shitting out LEs with gamekey cards. Hope no one is buying either. Looking foward to reading about Nintendo having to bury gamekey card unsold stock in a landfill in mexico
>>
>>720949901
So key cards are just being cheap? I'd rather just download the game digitally if the cart doesn't even have the actual game on it, saves space for an actual cart
>>
>>720962712
its the entire reason game keys are a thing
third party devs were too greedy to pay for carts so they cried
nw its biting them in the ass while games that release on real carts sell normally
>>
>>720963231
Third-parties like Capcom and else were always looking for cheap options to produce things in mass, hence why download codes existed during the Switch 1
Key cards are literally a compromise where you can at least sell or trade the digital game instead of having it stuck to your account.
Btw people do buy the keycards as they don't give a damn about this fake Internet outrage (which conveniently ignore the context of why certain games didn't work out on the console's launch). It's just pissing off the mentally ill physicalfags and collectorfags

>>
>>720963845
Like I said in >>720962951 , you're just a retard who believe in some griftter's narrative about digital games you purchased suddenly disappearing for no reason.
Preferring a full game cartridge that contains the entire game instead of having to sacrifice 90GB in your microSD ? Sure, I can understand that.
But we all know this forced outrage over key cards isn't primarily for that reason however.
>>
>>720963815
Once again, you're making things up. You need to have proof. Nintendo did conjure the key card scheme as a budget option for partners (and eventually themselves) but they never intended any cheaper solutions besides that. It's not like the carts are fast or anything. Nintendo could easily order 32GB chips and smaller from Macronix. They don't want the extra complications in their pipeline because it complicates their revenue stream.

>>720964332
Because the thing in the OP is obviously a collector edition meant to appeal collectorfags, you dummy. I even mentioned them before.
The autists being obsessed over this wishful thinking of keycards being a total failure are gonna get a rough wake up call in the following years, once the releases of actual and new big-hitters roll out. And of course, they will blame on the "tendies" and not the fact that most people doesn't give a crap about all these weird mental gymnastics.

If you really wanna play the card of "muh preservation" on consoles, you have to run a homebrew exploit before being able to make backups. And at this point, it doesn't matter if your games are in physical or digital format.

Autistic people don't like them and channel the same energy prepper boomers do - there is a (certainly) fictional timeline they lose access to their game purchase.
Games with exclusively autistic fanbases will suffer.
They think they are dunking on Nintendo for making social media posts about not buying key cards online, but Nintendo knows they will eventually cave and buy it anyway AND buy it a second time in ten years when Nintendo discontinues key cards and re-releases everything.
>>
>>720972504

My main concern is storage space. If the game can't fit on a Game Card, I would understand, but a lot of the games that are Game Key Cards could easily fit on a regular 64GB card; I'd be wasting space for nothing.

I'll preface this by saying that keycards are not ideal but the disinformation around them is pathetic

Friendly reminder that anyone calling key cards a flop is a disingenuous faggot

They are certainly not selling as hotly as they would normally, but NPD's Piscatella straight up said that the 3rd party sales of the switch 2 are higher than the Switch 1's in the release period

The keycards are also keeping their price in most retailers, they aren't t being liquidated yet, and while the sales are lower than usual in japan, they're still moving units

Finally, the panic about not being able to download them is pure nonsense, the downloads are not tied to the e-shop, and Nintendo has kept the ability to legally redownload things from the fucking dsi and wii so far, so losing the purchase is just fear mongering

The reason to skip them is because they're retarded and mostly pointless for the consumer, not because they won't function in 20 years

Regarding Disgaea 7, while keycarding it hurt it, the big issue is this is just a shitty collector's edition

The other disgaea collector editions came packed with plenty of goodies: Coasters, certificates, posters, music discs, plushies for the same price

This one is literally just a cheap figure, a shitty box (the disgaea 1 box was themed after Rosen queen's company) and a fucking paper fan

Also, the Disgaea 7 complete version in Amazon is a keycard and that one's actually selling its pre-orders, but that one's just 70 bucks and comes with stickers at least
