In my view Physical games are digital game in containers that we've yet to figure out to open. Digital games almost always have a DRM on top of it, and rarely can be used outside of their designated environment. My GameBoy, and PSP games have had a very long shelf life thanks to emulation and the various methods to back them up.

Agreed on the "whole game needs to be on disc". Was the reason I never bought Reignited Trilogy on Switch physically. No point since it was basically a digital game anyways.
I have a bit more nuances on that. Some games are Steam or console only, so what I do there is get them deeeply discounted so that if I was to loose them the hit isn't much. Otherwise GOG like digital services, or physical all the way.
The other way I look at it is for systems like the Switch or 3DS, where once it's cracked open. The game has a very high chance at being emulated easily with wider compatibility than it would otherwise.
I’m doing my part
Love to see purple lamp doing so well especially for making these games for so cheap.
Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated was a good game though only on pair with the original.
Cosmic Shake was their first outing on their own and while it had issues. They nailed it and the game even had its own unique charm. (Even if I feel old playing it)
I am looking forward to this game. Though think it’s funny they found a way to keep balloon Patrick.
I personally prefer DX. The GB printer bonus gives the game such a personality which is sadly missing.
If it was the same price I’d say pick the one you wanna play, but since it’s more expensive it’s not doing anything which makes it worth more.
At MSRP it’s price is crazy
LOL, actual taken from the parking lot as I was heading out.
Yup, has a grapple point for it
I love the original and it still inches this one out. With that said, try the original again. Since if you like it and want more you have the oracle games to play
First 2 dungeons are a slog. Get a fairy bottle and cream and it’s slow going. But it levels the playing field
Fantastic game soundtracks are the ones which I actually go out of my way to acquire. Chrono Trigger, PixelJunkMonsters Deluxe, SimCity 3000, and Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair.
