The Japanese National Library refused to include playing cards for Switch 2 – Indian

The Japanese National Library has a problem with the new version of Cartridge Pro Nintendo Switch 2The field of the institution that was carefully archived by music, books and video games published in Japan for more than 20 years, announced that it would not include part of the Switch 2 games in its collections. The reason is the new so -called Game mapsField

Unlike classic modules, these The cartridge does not contain the game itselfRather, they work as an activation code, where, when inserting into the console, the player allows you to load the digital version from ESHOP. Although this saves production costs, this is an insoluble problem for the library, which accepts only physical carriers containing future generations.

The situation is all the more, because most new Switch 2 games are produced in this form. This means that most of the production will not be officially preserved in the future, despite the library Since 2000, she collected more than 9600 titlesField

However, the fact that the library also began to archive digital publications, such as electronic books or electronic journals in recent years. Therefore, it is possible that in the future he will find a way to preserve even digital versions of games that today do not fit into his rules.

The advantage of this card with the game key is that you can sell it compared to the classic activation key.
