I considered switching to mostly digital games for my Switch. Then I bought a Switch Lite for my daughter, and Nintendo's poor handling of digital titles when you own multiple consoles made me wish I had bought all of my titles physically. What we had to settle with: my daughter's Switch is the "primary console", and she can play any of the games I purchased digitally as her user, on her console. My Switch is the "secondary console", so I can only play my digital titles (a) as my own user, so my younger children have to play as my user rather than their own, AND (b) when I am connected to the internet, so I can't play digital titles in a car or on a plane. If I had gone with purely physical titles, I would have neither of those restrictions— and yeah, I do resent paying the same price for digital copies which are less useful.
