Maybe they did that because the sales are better on Nintendo Switch or whatever.<\/p>\n<p>I personally couldn&#8217;t careless since i didn&#8217;t buy any Falcom games the last 5 years (last game i bought was Ys IX and it&#8217;s kinda mediocre) and i don&#8217;t have any plan to stop after this updated version that makes Atlus blush. NIS even longer, last time i bought their games was Disgaea 4 on PS3 and i&#8217;ve been avoiding a lot of games localized by NISA after they did a poor job with Ar Tonelico: Qoga.

And they&#8217;re grooming people to view digital games the same as physical as well. There&#8217;s a little animation that plays when you buy a game now, that shows a cart going into the Switch. Also, digital games have the same icon above them as the physical cart in your Switch. So it&#8217;s more convenient to physically check the cart now than to do a quick look at your library.
