>I enjoy owning physical games
I have 863 games on steam, where the fuck am I going to put them? Cloud storage is superior and convenient. The consoles I own are the NES, SNES, Genesis, gameboy, gameboy pocket, gameboy color, n64, ps1, gba, GameCube, ps2, DS, Wii, PS3, PSP, Vita, 3DS, PS4, and Switch. I don't use a single one any more. They just sit in my closet and rot. Even if I want to play a game on them it's easier to just emulate it. Hell, I can sync my joycons to my PC with Bluetooth and use them as motion controllers. And a lot of my physical media is deprecated, like my pokemon blue cartridge can't hold save data anymore because the battery is dead. And a lot of these consoles, the whole appeal was not owning games, but being able to simply burn a CD on your computer and play it in them. This is why the PS2 was so popular.
