any pros in buying physical copies instead of downloading digital copies?

besides being able to sell off after finish playing?

but seems like pre-owned games not popular... seems like everyone is buying new copies?

pai sei first time owner of a portable game device... asking a noob question...

and if buying digital copies... does it mean i can use the memory card on another switch device?

Physical copy if you apply promo code is cheaper almost all the time compared to buying digital...

Why pre-owned game is not popular is because the price of pre-owned game is around the same price and sometimes higher than buying a brand new copy of the same game after applying discount code...

Digital Copy is locked to account which is locked to one device...

Who said pre-owned games not popular. I always buy new at cheap price, complete it, and sell on carousell.

Literally playing the game for free and sometimes can earn abit of profit.

If you can sell used game at a profit, it already means that a bnib is lesser than a pre-owned copy...Of course there are stupid people around who pay full local markup retail price for games or console...

i always hoot pre-owned
not popular coz price is high
if can gt BNIB frm shop why hoot pre-owned
when i’m selling games, will actually chk shop buy back price and price my WTS accordingly.

sometimes u can find pretty damn gd deal frm carousell
so gd price when u sell it, u actually lose nothing

I think being able to sell off is a huge positive by itself already. Even if u sell at a fraction of cost price, u are still able to recoup back a little of what u paid.
