An extract from a discussion I read online, about digital games and BDSP:
>However it is true that you don't actually own the game if you bought it digitally. Like someone else explained, you're only given a license to play it. This license and the game you've downloaded are two seperate things. If the license is gone it doesn't matter that the game is still downloaded to your Switch because the console is designed to check for a valid license every time you start the game.
Is this true? Can Nintendo eventually (15 years from now, for example) stop me from playing my Shining Pearl that I bought digitally? What if I permanently turn OFF my internet connection? Can they revoke my license even without access to my console via internet?
I hope someone can explain.
