  • I can play it sooner via digital as I have an Australian switch (so it hits midnight 'earlier' for where I currently am!) Plus I'll be busy that day and there's no decent preorder bonus I want for it here physically anyway.

    I plan on getting a preowned copy, so physical is basically the only option. Typically Pokémon games don't drop in price by much, but with the controversy around Sw/Sh I'm tentatively hoping I can get one cheaper within a year or so.

  • Physical copies of both versions. They're coming tomorrow. I want them on my shelf. Also, having figured out some manipulations with the Let's Go games, I prefer to have both games in a physical format if I want to keep trading with myself to complete the Pokédex on my own (just in case: it involves two Switches and two Nintendo accounts, so no mystery there) .

  • I grabbed physical. Call me old fashioned, but I don't like the idea that I could buy something, and then have it only exist on a system that I don't have COMPLETE control of, you know?

  • I love physical but unfortunately those are way more expensive here in Argentina so I've had to go all digital, I hope I can find a way to get this games in physical format at the normal price
