I understand your point. Though honestly DRM-locked games should have some kind of compensation, like lower price. Games like Zelda or Mario don't usually have such treatment, whose digital version always has full price.

I always wonder who buys a Mario or Zelda game digitally at full price.

People who think experiencing the game is worth enough to pay full price. Most Mario and Zelda titles are of high enough quality that I do think they are worth that. You can think of it like going to the movies. You'll pay a lot and you only get to see it once, but for a lot of people that's worth it if the film is good enough. But for other people it's not worth the money.

Personally I do buy the mario and Zelda games on cartridge. They are some of the few games that I might actually want to replay in 10-15 years. And I do support DRm free options like GOG. Especially when there is no physical option available.

Me. Well, Zelda, at least.
