Keep seething!

Valve did digital in a box first

>all of their games are physical, unlike most discs on the market that installs from the disc
>exactly 2 listed games are $80
Uh, so how mad are you at everybody else in the industry?

Valve killed physical, valvesnoy

I can think of a few times Bethesda sold boxes with codes in them, if memory serves me right.

Also, I'm not into S2 key cards as much as the next guy, but aren't they a dev/publisher decision? Nintendo isn't making people do them, but having them as an option is basically default to these penny pinching companies.
>>
at least nintendo doesnt charge you to buy the card slot seperately
>>
What $80 code in a box game did Nintendo publish?
>>
Sony and their remake of Dark Souls, actually.
>>
>>741802808
>$80 games
They've only done it once so far
>digital in a box
I hate GKC too, but they aren't really comparable. When you buy GTA VI it will immediately lose all value once you redeem the code inside. A GKC on the other hand can be traded or sold and will retain some of its value.

>>digital in a box
PC was doing that as far back as the original release of Skyrim, where you'd pick up your preorder from Gamestop and all that the disk had was a downloader for Steam and there was a sticker inside the box with a download key, if not even earlier. Also at least with the key carts you can give it away or sell it, since it explicitly works on other consoles as long as they have the cartridge in them.

i can see nintendo actually announcing $80 games as a failed project too

Unlike GTA6 you get the full game on a cartridge ;)

Yeah, but you're ignoring the benefits the CIAB has vs. the GKC as well since the CIAB is also a digital copy. If you don't plan on selling the copy the CIAB is better since a digital copy doesn't take up your cartridge slot and is tied to an account so losing the copy or it breaking is more likely than losing your account. Since a GKC is just a digital copy with hoops it's worse to buy it over the CIAB.

NOOOO YOU CANT JUST CRITICIZE HECKIN WHOLESOME CHUNGUS NINTENDORINOOOOO NOOOOOO

That's because its the lowest quality hardware dumbass
>>
>>741806012
Just because the others became worse doesn't make them the good guys.

I dont remember switches overheating or sounding like wind tunnels

Nintendo died with Iwata. The Switch just happened to start out based.

>>741802808
gabe technically needed you to use online to play a single player game
>>
>>741808852
Yeah my phone doesnt either idiot, thats what low powered and weak hardware is like
>>
>>741809081
low powered and weak hardware like the PS5?
>>
Sure, and I told Nintendo to go fuck themselves when they tried it.
>>
nintendo didn't do digital in box first they were the last to do it lol

also comparing game key cards to digital in box is disingenuous

yeah but it isn't code in box
>>
>>741808541
The real issue is that I can see why you'd opt for a GKC over a digital copy, since each offer different pros and cons. Why the fuck would I ever buy a code-in-a-box? So I can proudly display the meaningless case on my gamer wall™?

Konami, when selling MGSV

The consequences of having that Jew puppet Furukawa in that supposed "CEO" leadership spot when he isn't the real CEO, it's the "investors" Jews that are. Punt them both out like the cancer they all are and put a giant blanket ban on both sides so they never return and get put in prision.

>>741803604
Case in fucking point. Kek, you have no power, faggot, your little Jew puppet Furukawa's days are fuckin' numbered, seethe, Jewfag Furukawafag puppet.

Honestly this the one good thing that people ignore. At least you don't need to keep that game forever in your digital library. I fucking hate to buy indie slop because of that.
>>
>>741808541
There are no benefitis with a code in a box. It's better and faster to just buy from the digital store.

>gta doesn't cost 100

I can smell the Jew stench radiating off of you. Begone, kike.

Valve?

How much does GTA6 cost? All versions, if you will.
