Switch 2 pub backs off Game Key Cards after leaking lower-cost cartridge options

Inin suggests new low-cost options allowed it to “recalculate production” for full cartridge.

Kaum ein Thema hat die ersten Monate der Switch 2 (zumindest für Sammler) so sehr dominiert wie das Drama um die #GameKeyCards. Einem Gerücht zufolge gibt es jetzt Grund zur Hoffnung, dass sich das Blatt noch wendet. https://jpgames.de/2025/12/hoffnung-fuer-physical-fans-switch-2-cartidges-soll-es-bald-in-kleineren-groessen-geben/

And this is why #physical *actual* #GameCards matter.
My #NintendoSwitch Oled's space is full save for 6 gigs.
MicroSD has like 270 megs left..

And therefore..
I did not buy #MetroidPrime4 as #digital, but as a #physical #Game instead !

Take that #GameKeyCards !

On #Steam #Requiem might be a low as 50
https://www.instant-gaming.com/de/9000-kaufen-resident-evil-requiem-pc-steam

So... 80€ for all 3 #ResidentEvil Games on #Switch2
(Especially for #ResidentEvilRequiem )

- Resident Evil Requiem
- Resident Evil 7 (Gold Edition)
- Resident Evil 8 (Gold Ediiton)
- Sammlerbox

But all three are #GameKeyCards

I don't like this #digital format very much, and it feels like every game is now being released as a game key card. Even #Pokemon Pokopia. It's even worse with third-party games. There are only game key cards available. Hades 2 and Cyberpunk are the only ones I can think of.
Precisely why I sent my #NintendoSwitch2 back 1 month in ..
(I might get it again if jt is like 300€, but digital only is a real slap in the face....)

#Physical was always a good way to save data and #bandwidth on my bad #internet.
With the #SteamDeck n #PC I can copy all onto a #USB stick.
Switch ?
Not even LocalUserMatchup works well with #GameKeyCards

Real disappointment.

I think even #WiiU n #3DS disappointed me less back then.

Bummer

(I did get less annoyed at this fact as rime went on.
But even with Switch1 it took me till #AnimalCrossing (2020) to consider getting one as I felt most games it had were on #WiiU / #Wii / #Gamecube already.
Switch2 as little exclusives not already on #Steam

And my backlog is no joke either
As its 50gigs I'll need the verified #InternetBucket 🫠

Also guess I better get. #MetroidPrime4 physical..

Physical sayves me data

(Unless its #GameKeyCards .. i dislike GameKeyCards very much)

Tremenda chorrada. Yo aún puedo jugar con mi Game Boy Advance o mi Game Cube pero el día que cierren Steam, se acabó el Skyrim.

Un ex desarrollador de videojuegos defiende las Game Key Cards de Nintendo: “Lo físico tiene una vida útil…”

La llegada de Nintendo Switch 2 ha suscidado grandes alegrías, pero también cierta polémica con la imposición de los nuevos precios tanto en formato físico como digital, donde la propia industria ya lo preveía . Sin embargo, la polémica no acaba aquí, porque la estrategia impulsada por Shuntaro Furukawa conlleva la puesta en marcha las Game Key Cards o tarjetas llave, que han llegado a generar discrepancias, menos para los profesionales del sector, que afirman que serán beneficiosas para el futuro de los videojuegos.
