One thing GOG doesn't do is allow me to sell older games. I can do that just fine with physical media on a console. AFAIK, it's also legal to make physical backups of physical media you own, so it can theoretically live forever (not sure if you can sell backups if the original dies though).
That said, I'm still almost 100% on PC. Cheaper games and being able to upgrade on my schedule is way better than the overall experience on consoles.
I suppose not but every time I went to sell console games the prices were insultingly low at every store and not much better selling it online.
Idk, Switch games hold their value pretty well. I buy mostly used, and it's rare to find anything under $30. If I wasn't so lazy, I'd be able to play for just the cost of shipping.
Hmm, I should sell my Switch games. I haven't played since I bought my Steam Deck.
