For console systems i mainly buy my games physically. Unless its a game i know i can never part with i will always by physically. Plus more often than not it has a sweet collector/limited edition, or Pre order bonus that you cant get digitally (unless its DLC) so i really have no reason to go the Digital route unless the title isnt available in Physical format.
But i will agree if its cheaper, i can see why people would buy it. But i dont see why that means retailers would lose business. i mean kids/parents dont buy digitally or at least not in the masses so their whole sales wont be a lost. it will be people who have big enough memory that buys it in the long run. Plus there are point/game cards that the retailers still get a part of sale for.
I just dont see why something as simple as a digital formatted game needs to be the same price (or sometimes higher) than a physical game that needs to be made/manufactured, plastic casing, shrink wrap, printing for the manual, deliver from cars/planes/boats, etc. In the end i see myself justifying buying a game 40-60$ with all that in the process than say the same digital game that got uploaded to the server and left at that.

I really hope they sort that thing out before publicly releasing it (unless it already has) granted i dont have either games yet (just stuck with NintendoLand) but i know both games are a huge hit and a lot of people have them it would suck to have all your data deleted when you have gone through the game a lot.

I'm not sure if this has been mention before but since the WiiU has a pad now, i would hope this game will be 5 players-ish on some part. Like with Brawl and having a Picto-chat stage. i hope they do the samething this time around except with the pad being able to draw things.
