    Switch is still offline… you can play any game you got on a cartridge for forever with no problems, what are you drinking dude?

      Unless we’re talking Switch 2 game key cards. Those are just downloads you can trade. But at least Nintendo puts all of their own properties on full carts rather than game key cards (Pokopia aside; Gamefreak and Pokemon are technically not Nintendo).

      I don’t drink. But also don’t use the switch. Also I said most games are codes in a box with no cartridge. She only has one damn thing on a cartridge. Considering how much we paid for that tiny console and how expensive the games are, I wouldn’t touch those with a 10m-pole. Would pay a bit more and get a steamdeck if I absolutely HAD to be mobile.

          It becomes neglectable if factoring in the ability to get vaaastly more games very cheap. I have bought like 15k games there. Can game them on the deck, Linux and windows. Mac too maybe, who cares. So the 780 covers my quarterly spending for games I could already play on it.

          Even if one would start fresh, you could get a ton of games free or very dirt-cheap where switch wants 60 moneyz.
