Digital cheaper, people change their console country so can buy at cheap prices like Mexico or South Africa.
No need to swap cartridge but need a big SD card.

Physical can sell off.
Change game very mafan.

For new to shopee people, can get 10 off from referral, 5 off if you use citi card. Plus shop back.

Not too bad a deal

Mexico not cheaper for all games. For people wanting to use, go check the prices before you buy. Sometimes Mexico price is same or even more than us prices.

For me, depends on price. New Big games are usually cheaper physical. With online discount plus shopback plus cc cash back, it's cheaper by quite a bit vs digital. Changing cart is not that hard for me so idm. And of course can sell off after you are done if you want.

digital not always cheaper, in fact I think for us physical is cheaper if we buy from Shopee/Lazada plus discount count. The downside is swap cartridge which can be quite troublesome.

hmm just a quick check, does the eShop still
- require you to "give up" the existing funds in your eShop wallet before you change region?
- require a US Credit Card for the US eShop?
