Just to be clear this is like a completely different game then the original. Like the story is kinda the same and the progression is about the same but it's so much different that I barely recognized playing the original DQ1 and this remake. Not that that's a bad thing but it's just so different. Good but different.

I only played the DQ1 remake and beat it, took about 20-ish hours. Personally I rented it from Gamefly and glad I did as I won't be buying it.....not a lot of replay value. Not sure how much content there is in DQ2.

For physical collectors, S2 version is a game key card. No buy from me as I refuse to support game key cards or codes in a box.

Yup. Code in a box save me so much money as I don't buy. Gaming industry's loss.

I refuse to buy any games that require a download for any console, and I don't buy digital games for anything but PC. I've saved thousands in recent years!

Code in a box is the new scam. These aren't products, they're transient obligations.

You realize even if you buy a disk version, the first thing it does is go and download the latest version right? The days of a game being contained fully on a disk and never changing have been over for a very long time. There will almost always be something to download.

I do. That's why I'm pointing out the ridiculousness of refusing to buy a game-key card when every game being sold today is going to require a download to play. People are fooling themselves into thinking they have "the full game on the disc" when they buy it for another platform that doesn't spell it out like Nintendo does. They're literally the same as any other game sold today, with more transparency. Nintendo shot themselves in the foot with even putting this on the boxes, because now people are mad at Nintendo for something that literally every other console maker does.

This isn't code in a box, though. A code in a box would be a game code that you redeem and is registered to your Nintendo account, no physical cartridge required and you can't sell or give it away. This, on the other hand, is no different than any other modern game. You pop the cartridge into your console and it downloads the game. You want to give it away or sell it? You take it out and sell it. It's basically no different than any other physical game in 2025.

With a game on card, you can also be offline, pop it in and play the full 1.0 version. Game key is a piece of plastic with no value and no game.

"Latest Version" is the important part. The disc still has a version of the full game printed to it. If you never go online, you still have the game, even if the servers are shut down years from now.

Nintendo's Game Card Keys are their solution to how many companies complained that cartridges are much more expensive than blank blu-ray discs and cut into their profits. Game Key Cards are much cheaper because they don't have storage for games, juat a cheaper chip with an unique authentication code. So when Nintendo shuts the servers down years from now, these keys are just waste plastic.

I mean, I just bought my kid dragon quest 3 remake (the original switch version that's on here for $35). Didn't require a download.
I understand what you're saying but many games on switch don't have a mandatory "day one" patch. I know a lot of disc based games are this way though.

I wish Nintendo would have the balls to allow us to sell/transfer digital licenses. They could be the first to do so. Instead they just gave us keycards.
