I just bought a Switch copy of Red Dead Redemption for $30 USD at Walmart and wondered if that’ll be the last of its purchase I’ll ever make. There’s nothing quite like buying a new cellophane-wrapped copy and it makes me sad the physical age of gaming is at its twilight.
Starfox 0
Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.
Bought it, but never played it. It’s still in its plastic wrapping, sitting on my shelf, taunting me, quietly whispering “pile of shame” every time I walk by.
Very cool game that nobody ever seems to talk about
Same here. A local store had a Black Friday sale that Echoes of Wisdom qualified for, despite only being released within the last couple months, so I snagged it. But I still haven’t gotten around to playing it yet.
Horizon: Forbidden West. If we put a few PS5 games aside, I suspect it was Orange Box.
Game Gear game, Castle of Illusion. Huge childhood nostalgia for that game and it wasn’t too expensive either. Got it just a year or two ago at an Another Castle in the Seattle area to use with my Analogue Pocket
Got Fantasy Life i on switch just two weeks ago.
Technically a Japanese cartridge because it’s the only physical edition, but it!s the same as the e-shop, all included languages and compatible with the Switch 2 upgrade patch.
I am still buying Switch 2 physical games, but only if they’re actually on the cartridge and not that empty keycard bullshit.
Morrowind, back in… Dagoth knows when it was so long ago
It was probably when I bought my Link Between Worlds 3DS XL. I bought physical cartridges for it, but I think I was getting them on Amazon mostly. When I got the switch my whole collection was digital downloads.
Armored Core 6. Because it was on the store shelf at my local Walmart a full day before it was supposed to launch.
I was going to say Rock Band on the Xbox 360, but then I remembered I did own a couple of games physically on the PS4 as well. The last one… Maybe Nioh? So that would be in 2017.
