[QUOTE="scubamage, post: 4834743, member: 339477"] So, I am getting my first 3DS tomorrow, and with any new system, you have to get a bunch of games. That's like an international gamer law. So far, I'll have Fire Emblem: Awakening, Kingdom Hearts 3D, and Zelda: LBW. I was also considering picking up Pokemon X, and Project X Zone. But, I'm not sure if they're going to be at my local game store. So, I was considering the eShop instead. What is everyones thoughts on a physical cartridge, vs downloaded games? I like having a physical cartridge, and at least they used to come with manuals, fun extras, and you get that "new game" smell when you open it up. Plus it's nice to hold something in your hand. The downside is if you lost the cartridge, you're farked. Digital downloads are easy. You can get them anytime, anywhere. If for some reason you lose your game, you can redownload (if I'm correct anyways). But, the downside is you can't let a friend borrow it. If the eShop ever goes belly-up, you lose your game. So, for those of you who don't have the luxury of a gateway compatible 3DS, what is everyone's opinion on physical versus eStore? [/QUOTE]
