A tangible version of a role-playing game, specifically the enhanced edition of a title originally released on the Wii U, provides a direct means of ownership. The packaging contains the game data stored on a physical medium, such as a cartridge or disc, intended for play on a compatible gaming console. For example, collectors and players who prefer to hold their games value the option to possess a boxed edition.
The value of owning such a format extends beyond mere gameplay. It offers the ability to resell or trade the game after completion, contributing to a secondary market. Furthermore, a collection of physical games can be a source of nostalgia and pride, representing gaming history. The physical presence stands in contrast to digital downloads, which are often tied to specific accounts or platforms, and can be subject to terms of service changes or removal from storefronts.
