Yeah, they're not tied to accounts or consoles. Any console with the card in will be able to play the game after downloading it. You can trade or sell them.
Codes and boxes are just digital purchases with plastic waste attached and no further benefit.
They're shittier than real physical games, but they still do have that one advantage over digital games, just with the drawback that you still have a physical cartridge you have to switch out and carry around. It's a mixed bag.
I mean - they're better than the codes they used to slap in boxes. At least you can lend these or sell them (for the lifespan of the console, or whatever server it uses...)
Sometimes it can. Google and Samsung never had an issue though. The more ad lists you setup the more false-positives you get.
But 99% of the time it's fine. The other 1% you open the dashboard and look at the last few blocks and whitelist whatever it causing issues.
Game Keys still way better than the "here's a code in an empty box" shit
How many Nintendo games are the subject of this article?
(Hint: 0)
None of these games are $80
MKW is the only one. Even the next big Nintendo title (Donkey Kong) is going to be $69
I think they did it with MKW to up the value of the MKW console bundle (where you'd only pay $50 for the game) but we'll see.
RIP bee. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten.
The whole update being design focused is kinda disappointing. But the Liquid Glass UI does look kinda intriguing. I'm glad to get back a little of the old Skeuomorphism of old.
Though I don't have any Apple stuff at the moment
It was a nice theme IMO
It's a fair worry.
As the admin of thelemmy.club though I will say my aim is absolutely not growth for it's own sake. If the site starts to get larger than I want I will stop allowing signups. I welcome new users, but I'm not trying to be a big instance either.
Probably. It would need to be updated with new laws and rules though.
I mean they're clearly not. Codes are one time use and forever bound to you, these can be sold/traded.
I'm not saying they're good. Just that there is an advantage (and disadvantages)
