Actually the games will be 100% analogue
Srsly though I'm so glad we're finally doing away with optical discs. Fuck everything about their brittleness and loud slow drives

He means if it will have physical media (cartridges) or be digital (download) only. I imagine both will be available, but physical cartridges are confirmed. |

seriously? videogames on analog media haven't been around since the 80s, so it's pretty damn obvious that "digital" has to refer to something else in the context of a new game (like digital distribution maybe??). it wouldn't be a meaningful distinction otherwise. "please don't use the word digital because i can't tell if a game announced for 2017 is coming on out on cassette tape or not". are u guys for real? |

seriously? one time someone was talking about their digital games and i thought it was what we call computer games now to distinguish them from board games or such mostly though I find it dumb because it implies a meaningful distinction "shrug" |

the fun stuff is that it seems everyone else gets the point that words can extend their meanings and most people get what they mean anyway

Sorry for making a stir, guys!
I didn't see mention about how the games would be delivered (or forgot).
And yes, cartriges are what carts are, like the ones in 3DS. And digital is the gameware you purhase on interweb stores that can fuck you up if they close.
But most people already understood that. Can't believe someone is older than me to make such a confusion.
