No. Pokemon Co. Is just cheap as fuck. Nintendo is the publisher and distributor but Pokemon Co. Are the ones that chose those carts and paid for the manufacturing (which Nintendo does). Nintendo put out Bananza, Metroid 4, Mario Wonder, and Xenoblade X on the new cards, no key cards.

Physical has been dead for almost 20 years. Convenience is more important than "preservation" games made today objectively are almost impossible to lose to time, or even a major platform(sony, Microsoft, nintendo) having hardware become outdated. Steam will outlast every living person your games will never be at risk. The only people who collect physical are unironic schizos, extreme normies, or performative retards who want to show off their collection for fags on reddit.

>don’t offer any alternative
>huh gee wow I guess the market prefers this literally only thing that was offered so I guess they don’t care about the thing there wasn’t even an option for

Have been for awhile. If Xbox 360 and PS3 ever go offline the console is basically worthless.

Physical game popularity is dying, yes. It's possible in the near future that nobody will be able to own their media and we will all be forced to pay for digital accounts.

No, you can't own digital games. Did you mean to say preserve?

No you don't. You can't own digital games. They're locked to whatever host site sold you access to the files.
>b-b-but!!!!
Your unlicensed rips you made are illegal and not your property.
