Default Re: Will NINTENDO be "forced" to go back to disc based games for the Switch Replaceme

I don't expect Nintendo to go back to disc unless the next system is a permanent 'under the TV' console and not like the Switch and be portable.

Discs are physically too big for a portable system unless they're similar in size to UMD's, but they hold less than 2GBs. It would have to be a proprietary format.

I'm still a big physical collector but I think all consoles next gen will most likely be digital only. They're slowly passing the 'storage' cost onto the consumer so they don't have to worry about it. Charge the same for the games but you have to pay extra to store them (extra SSDs, SD cards, etc).
