I'd rather have it digitally than not at all.

Yeah. I'll buy a game I really want if it's digital-only and be happy. I did it with some Vita games, and most recently EDF 5 on the PS4. Plus with this, if you buy it in store, you get a free box!

Guess I'm not buying it then. This is just insulting. Just do a digital only release for Switch if you're going to do this.

Stop whining. Be grateful it's getting released at all on your little 720p tablet

Why even do a 'physical' edition then? Especially since the only 'physical' edition the game has on Switch is a limited Edition that is more expensive. Literally it's ONLY point is that it's supposed to be the game on a cart.

Well, I was going to purchase 2 copies. For me and brother in law. Now I think he will just get it on PS4.

I was looking forward to it, really enjoying Wolfenstein 2. I'm not going to support these practices. Sure I may miss out on some games, but at least I will have stuck to my principles.

I don't remember where I have read this, but wasn't it planned that 64 GB cartridges would come in 2019 ?

You assume its a size issue. I mean the cart could simply execute a download of the game content and access to play it. That would give value to the cart at least. Perhaps they just didn't want to make a cart because its cheaper.
