I’m converting to physicals now that I realised, I’m probably never going to replay 90% of my games.

I’m planning to sell most of my 3DS games because I didn’t like them enough to replay besides two, yet enjoyed them enough/know what the deal is when people discuss them that buying was worth it. Now I can hopefully get half of my cash back (and I already bought them used!) once I find the time and energy to look for buyers. Don’t know how much pawn shops take.

You might even try to buy new games and just sell them after finishing (unless you love them), but I have enough of a backlog already…

In this anti-subscription context, it’s nice, but for me the main point of physicals is reselling. GOG just like Steam and others benefits from the fact you can’t get your money back, and you have to buy from them.

Toby Fox was a wise man for getting rid of that shit, and OMORI taught me that they can hamper the experience, because now I know I missed out on feeding a cat fish on day 1. Even on Steam, I don’t like the game’s profile taunting me every time I look at it - can you turn that off?

Never had that problem playing Nintendo games besides the occassional in-game achievement lists, which are easier to ignore. Just give me a piss-colored title screen as a completion reward. Wouldn’t even know about it without the Internet.
