Game-key cards are different from regular game cards, because they don’t contain the full game data. Instead, the game-key card is your “key” to downloading the full game to your system via the internet.
Pay a premium for a physical copy of your game, and the cartridge may not contain the actual game. Only on Nintendo Switch 2.
So these physical copies will only cost $5, right? Lol.

Actually from the prices I’ve seen online they are about 5 /10 dollars more than digital versions.
