No.. never see or heard of that before.

While I'm pretty much the only one out of my friends that still plays/buys retro games they all think its cool. Few of them went and got the snes classic because of my talk about retro games.

CC twice

Get a snes classic mini and have it loaded with the best 200-300 games.

I like the Snes version of Aladdin better than Genesis. Better looking, better playing, way better sound and waaaaaaaaaay better controller to play the game with.

I'd want to protect my family with a gun if I lived in a country where everyone had a gun.
Luckily I don't live in a country like that, meaning nobody needs a gun and everyone is more safe.

Most criminals have guns here in Canada.. look up Surrey BC shootings.

Yes. Everything is racist.

Most of Canada is full of sissy idiots. I live here and it's a joke how dumb people are here.. our government is a total joke as well.

Guns protect familys and a nation without guns is a easy target if an invasion were to happen. I'd like to defend my family and go hunting plz n ty.

Love all suikoden games! Wish we got one on ps4!

Anyway I'm done here, to me you have to be pretty dumb to buy a lot of games digitally. It's flushing money away and there is no system in place to insure you keep those games forever.

I don't buy a lot of games digitally. I still buy major releases physically. But I think digital is fine for plenty of things, like smaller indie games, Virtual Console and certain sales.

And I know it was an exaggeration, but a games selling digital at 5% of the physical copy barely happens, IF it has even happened ever.

It wasn't an exaggeration. I was specifically referring to retro games and stuff like Virtual Console, not normal new titles. Look at Earthbound - it's $8 on VC or equivalent to less than $4 on the SNES Classic, but original cartridges go for over $150. Most examples aren't that extreme, but even for common games, the VC is usually at most still half the price of a cartridge.

Okay ill chime in once more on this. What if you say bought a retro VC game for $8 but could have bought the real cart for $50. A year goes by and the VC game is still $8 but the original cart is now selling for $70. Okay now 10 years go by and the VC game is gone and no way to re download it but the original cart is $150 or more.

Also just to throw it out there because why not, my video game collection is worth easy 40k maybe 50k if I sell very patiently. If was all digital be worth just what the systems are worth so like just over 1k.

40k-50k or 1k ... hmmm

Yes, but you put money into building that value too, and you aren't really getting it back unless you actually do sell. Some games will appreciate, but a lot will depreciate as well, so it's not a reliable investment. It's also a lot of effort to sell a collection that big. I used to be into trying to get original cartridges for everything I could, but I don't feel that way anymore. Why pay $100 for a rare game that is $5 on a digital shop? Sure, it may be worth even more than $100 later on, but I buy games to play them, not to hope to profit years later.

I bought a lot of the games when they were $5 and now $100.

Still physical gets you money back, Digital does not. And most places that sell used have warranty. Even ebay / amazon your protected.

- has resale value ( sometimes more than retail )
- looks nice on display

More than retail? What are you talking about? And who cares how nice it looks on display when it's probably not going to be seen by many people. Not to mention the vast variety of box/case/cartridge sizes kind of diminishes the display factor.

Digital pro

- good for fat lazy people to stay in their home

Isn't lack of physical space taken up also a pro? Hmm, totally not a biased comparison at all.

- you have to buy memory cards

No you don't... only if you fill up the console's hard drive/default storage, which nowadays is mostly just a problem with Nintendo consoles. And even with Nintendo, you don't have to expand memory, strictly speaking. Also, physical games can still have that problem with large update downloads.

- no resale value
- no trade value
- have to pay full/new price. No used options

Yeah, "full" price that is often heavily discounted over retail options. Digital gaming has passed on a huge amount of savings to consumers, which kind of makes up for the lack of resale/trade value, if you're scrupulous in your purchases. And buying used games isn't without its cons, which you failed to list. I like the assurance of not having to worry about a scratched disc or a bad cartridge, which was half-assedly tested, if it was even tested at all.

Oh shut up all my points are valid.

- A game that is worth more than retail - legend of zelda breath of the wild master edition.

- I have game nights once a week in my games room with lots of friends and sometimes their friends that I haven't met before.

- Wii u, Switch, 500gb PS4 and Xboxones have memory issues. Same with PS Vita. Even a few of my friends have filled up their 1T PS4 slims with digital games. My PS4 has only 160GB on it so far.

- what cons from buying used? Being a dumb ass and not looking at the disc before buying?

Just like Canada's PM Justin T.

Physical >>>>>>>>>>> Digital

Physical pros

- has resale value ( sometimes more than retail )
- looks nice on display
- can be traded
- can be borrowed out
- don't usually take up space on system memory
- can be bought used to save more money

Physical cons

- can be stolen / lost
- can take up space

------------

Digital pro

- good for fat lazy people to stay in their home

Digital cons

- takes up memory space
- you have to buy memory cards
- no resale value
- no trade value
- can't borrow it out
- if service ends won't be able to re download / lost
- pretty much flushing your money away
- have to pay full/new price. No used options
- slow download speeds for some
- downloading takes up your monthly GB cap for some

New price is neutral because I see cheaper/ more expensive for both.

You can't be racist to whites. So no.

Not my parents but lots said my sister is hot :/

Everything is racist and will always be racist.

15.5 or 93... lol. 16 is legal here in Canada for sex so .5 year wait for no jails... :/

Don't like him much at all. 2/10

Never have, never will.

Why?

To risky for danger in your area?

Once or twice a month I will buy or sell something using Craigslist.

France, Canada and South Korea are best by far to me.

Yes kirby is easy but I still love quite a few of the games. Fun to play.

My favorites are,

Kirby dreamland 2 game boy
Kirby super star snes/ds
Kirby nightmare in dreamland gba
Kirby Amazing mirror gba
Kirby retrun to dreamland wii
Kirby mass attack ds
Kirby triple deluxe 3ds
Kirby planet robobot 3ds

I disliked the racing one on gamecube and didn't care for dreamland 1 on game boy or dreamland 3 on snes.

Meh/good ones were Kirby adventure on nes and kirby 64. Also dreamcourse snes. Oh and tilt and tumble/block ball. Gb/gbc

Both classic and 3D had "good" games but not great games. Best sonic game for me was the transformed racing one on wii u. I would give that a solid 8 out 10.

Only sonic game I liked was racing transformed on wii u. I played all the older ones and lots of newer ones and all are meh. Never beat a sonic game and probs never will. Beat almost all mario games though.
