I wouldn't call that "most cases." It certainly happens pretty often

Maybe it's just my own misfortunes with game ownership that makes it seem more prevalent.

PC games definitely aren't sold that way. Toward the end even the boxed copies just had the Steam or Blizzard client and you could not make use of the files on the disc.

I guess with the switch you can install from the carts without needed anything extra. For PS and Xbox some of the systems can't make use of physical media. You need a specific system that has the optical drive.

I think my physical copy of Monster Hunter: World on PS4 would not let me start the game until I connected it to a network, updated, and downloaded the Iceborn expansion.
