As others have stated, no I definitely don't see a digital game as part of my collection. Part of collecting is seeking out physical copies, despite fluctuating prices and rarity. Downloading a digital game is as easy as plugging in your credit card info and waiting for a download. There is no satisfaction in that, personally. Plus like others have stated, you don't technically own the game. I can play my cartridge based games whenever I want - updates, no downloads, I never have to worry about companies pulling the plug on a service rendering the games useless. The worst I'd have to worry about is replacing a save battery, whcih is not a big deal. I think when gaming goes completely digital is when I stop gaming, or at least stop buying new games. I'll never stop playing the older stuff.
