Heya folks,

So I have a certified first world problem.

I am most definitely buying Super Mario Party, but I am not sure which form I should get. I really like the digital download versions of games, not having to worry about physical carts and the reward coins you get from them.

But, I can get the physical version for $10 cheaper, and I have almost run out of room on my Switch's SD card and system memory, so I am probably also going to have to purchase a bigger SD card and try and port everything over to that. So I am turning to you fine folks, to try and help me out on which way I should go.

Any help and advice is greatly appreciated!

Buy it on the store. I personally would rather be able to switch games with a push of a button rather then having to get up and change the discs. I guess it really comes down to if you can afford the extra $10. But I say get the digital one!

The $10 is not an issue, it was more about the lack of storage space I currently have on my Switch. I'll just go pick up a bigger SD card and grab SMP after that.

While on the subject, has anyone else picked up SMP yet? Thoughts, impressions?

I went with the physical copy. I am thinking that Nintendo won't let us transfer digital purchases anyway, and I want to have control over my copy of the game.

Transferal of digital purchases seems like a bit of a grey area with Nintendo. The only time I have had to do it is when transferring from one DS console to another.

Are you enjoying Mario Party?

You can get a 128GB memory stick at bestbuy for $30 or even check it out on Amazon, I saw some around $25. I just picked up SMP yesterday, it's a pretty fun game. I was able to play it with my wife last night.
