It's been years anon. Probably around the time the wiiu came out.

I only buy physical. There's no reason not to. The price is almost always the same no matter the platform either, but you're getting less to show for it. In some instances places sell physical cheaper than digital, a few days ago Amazon had physical KH2.5 for $35, digital was still $50, even on PSN.

Last month. I don't typically buy full price games digitally. Usually all physical.

There's no reason to not buy physical copies of console games. You can buy them used, trade them, sell them or lend them.

Selling half as many games at full price is more profitable than selling twice as many at Amazon prices.

Like a week ago.
