i just like to look at the boxart, and i don't view having to get up and manually switch out the disk/cartridge as a negative.
to me it just sounds lazy when people complain about that
>these digital copies aren't going away (...) There's no point to this either since emulation has progressively been getting better.
digital stores shut down and/or lose functionality on older consoles like the 3ds and psvita, respectively (though that's less a point against digital gaming in general and more moreso a thing about anti preservation, planned obsolescence, and bad business practices, but still a reason as to why some people, at least on consoles, would rather get something physically) and, ignoring any moral qualms one might have with piracy and/or emulation, emulation doesn't work quite right with more specialized hardware, like the 3ds, psvita, and wii. and for newer hardware like the switch or the ps4, hard drive/sd card space is a valid concern. there's a bit more to it than "physical owners just can't let go of the past and are too blind to see that digital is just better".
though really, i just hate when people have to go out of their way to justify stuff like this to themselves or start fights over it to prove that their way of thinking is superior. i don't really care too much either way what reasoning people have for having a preference.
