Idk anyone that buys Nintendo games digitally. They hold their value better than any other game, they are the type of games that are still fun 30 years later and if anyone thinks their digital Switch games are gonna be carried over past 1 generation at best their in for a rude awakening lol.

Edit: Oh and Nintendo shuts down their online for their consoles faster than anyone else lol.

Total software with retail packaging for Nintendo like BOTW, ACNH, MK8D, and etc = 60% digital sales of total software sales in the last 2 quarters.

I do, and yes, the risks you mention do worry me.

But I am 90% digital for two reasons: firstly, I play in handheld exclusively, so it's convenient to have basically everything available all the time, and secondly because it means I can install the same games on my wife's Switch, so she can play them whenever she wants too.

If these games don't carry over to the Switch 2, then you can bet I won't be repeating the mistake on that however.

Also PS5 is still sold out everywhere. It's easy for Nintendo to dominate sales when there's nothing available for the competition to sell.
