Nothing wrong with buying digitally, but it's a bit risky because accounts are tied to the console. So if you lose your 3DS, you lose everything you downloaded, unless you have a nintendo club account tied to the system and nintendo is feeling generous.Â
This is a game that'll give me alot of value in the long term, so this is a more convenient approach for me to download it.
Thanks for the reassuring response, but I did hear something about the local communications working differently, like the digital version wasn't able to connect to a game card version? I just want to make sure I get it right to avoid wasting 40 bucks.Nothing wrong with buying digitally, but it's a bit risky because accounts are tied to the console.

I was going digitally, but decided not too because the game will be tied to the system and I will spending a lot of time and effort into the game. If something were to happen to my console, I would lose everything.SoulreavercrossThis. I would hate to loose all my gameplay hours if something happens to my 3DS. Another reason why I don't want to download is because once XY's successor comes out (probably next year), I'll no longer play Y. I'd rather put it on a shelf than have it waste SD card space.
The digital and physical copies are the same and I haven't heard anything about the digital version having local wireless issues. It all depends on your preferences. If you want it digital, go digital.

Also, the fact that Pokemon Bank is coming out soon helps, I usually don't play the latest Pokemon game for a few months when a new one is coming out soon, so I could just put em all up there and not worry.[QUOTE="Soulreavercross"]I was going digitally, but decided not too because the game will be tied to the system and I will spending a lot of time and effort into the game.

Hopefully Nintendo will have implemented a unified account system by then.
