This seems to be posted every few days at his price. It just leads to hate about s2 card. This game is pretty good but I am enjoying the second one more. I continue to be amazing what they are getting the s2 to do.

What is a "game key card"?

Do I own the game, or not? If I own the game, how do I lend it to a friend for he weekend?

The game key card does not have the game on it, so you'll still have to use hard drive space, but otherwise functions like the game card. You can't run the game without it inserted in the system. You can lend it or sell/trade it. It's a physical key for a digital download, if that makes sense.

Clarification, because it's a digital download, that card only has value as long as that download is available - meaning that card won't be worth jack down the line.

This is true but there a couple things to mention.

1) You can still download from Wii Shop and it's ~20 years old

2) If you had the game on your Switch 2 and sold it locally, you can transfer it to the buyers system locally. "Match Version with Local Users"

3) If 20 years down the road you want to keep it. You could buy multiple 1tb+ cards assumedly on the cheap and keep the data on them or on your PC by backing up the "Nintendo" folder.

However, if you want to use/sell in 30 years from now, only have the card, no storage backup, yes, its probably worthless.

After finding out the switch 2 game cartridges load ~15 seconds slower than digital I'm thinking key cards aren't as bad anymore.

You should know that this has been the case since the Switch 1. Onboard storage has been up to 30 seconds faster with loading times: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbItTEmozxw and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E0s-GK3dGg

Where are you seeing 20 years? Is that in Nintendo's Terms of purchase or something? We have seen Nintendo shutdown the WiiU store in less than 10 years. What evidence not that of speculation that Nintendo will do anything like you said? How do I transfer my WiiU games locally?

I'm not "seeing" 20 years. The Wii was released in 2006, 20 years ago. You can still redownload the software today that you purchased then. Noone can promise that for Switch 2, but just saying Nintendo has kept the Wii download servers up for 20 years at this point.

WiiU PURCHASES have shut down. Not the ability to download previous purchased titles.

You can transfer Switch and Switch 2 data locally. I'm not aware of this feature for WiiU. I gave you the exact name of the feature so you could google it.

From Nintendo's website on the Wii Shop Channel Discontinuation:

Quote :
The Wii Shop Channel, which has been available on Wii systems since December 2006, closed on January 30, 2019. We sincerely thank our loyal customers for their support.

It is no longer possible to purchase new content from the Wii Shop. However, for the time being you may continue to re-download content you have purchased or transfer that content from a Wii system to a Wii U system. Be aware that these features will eventually end at a future date.
You have no guarantee except that Nintendo is committed to removing your ability to download the games you purchased with your money. They are literally telling you this.

IMO - when it comes to the sides of for or against this digital only future, if one is younger than the NES / SNES / Genesis generation, then one is more likely to accept a digital future because one does not have that gaming history that those of us who were around when the magic was written enjoy. And that makes me sad for future generations where ownership is nothing but a story told by elders to their naive children.

Note, this is not a read on you, I don't know you or your situation. This is a general observation of the generational differences I am witnessing when it comes to ownership. Did you work to earn your money? Did you exchange that money for a product? If so, you should own it. Permanently. Full stop. This should be the default position of every single person.

I'm not disagreeing generally with what you're saying. The things I pointed out were just to give context. I even put in my original post, there is a good chance in 30 years the card could be worthless. But if you're giving purchasing advice, it's also useful to let someone know how long the thing might have worth.

I am the SNES/Genesis generation. I also have kids of my own and have had to declutter and "minimize" some. Almost every retro system I have has been hacked and plays off digital ROMs. SNES/64 can be a flashcart. Wii is modded and functions as my gamecube. My 3DS is modded and I have digital ROM titles on it. So, just to me, if I purchased FFVII at any point, whether it be digitally or GKC, and in 25 years I'm 65 and retired and want to revisit it and Nintendo just shut down the server. More than likely I'm just going to use my hacked Switch 2 or 3 or 4, or whatever it is and just play the game you know?

And I get what you mean about ownership and exchange for product. License is dumb. But I also pay for experiences. And especially if the $ value is low enough, maybe I'm willing to pay that $ value for 20 years with of experience/product, even if it doesn't last forever. That is up to every individual

What scenarios are people thinking about? Do some people buy a game and never install it or is it 20 years later they want to reinstall it and can't. I think it's unrealistic for any digital item to be reinstalled at a much later date in the future. And I am not just talking about videos games. I have a game installed on my s2 and in 20 years it will still be there. If I never installed it and I can't 20 years later, that's on me. People can complain, but that's just the way it is in the world today.
