Considering this thing is bound to be a 500GB Clusterfuck with even more gigs of Day 1 patches I don't even know what physical media would look like.

Might as well switch to NFC Cards with the license inside them at this point.

    I hesitate to ask but you know Nintendo already did that yeah? Like it sounds like you may know but just to make sure.

    At least did more honestly (clearly put a "DO NOT PURCHASE" label on the box) than a fake 50mb stub that just tells the user "there's a 200gb update to download, you need to go online and download it" that too many games are doing nowadays and there's no way to know if the game is actually included or the purpose of the disc is to be a DRM
