Given how little libraries advertise, this is something that I found recently. Like many, I missed being able to easily/quickly rent games via Blockbuster. But, it turns out many librarians keep up with modern preferences and keep quite a few games for checkout. Even when the one closest library doesn’t have something I want, it’s often available in the others on the network.

Especially as Nintendo lifts their prices to $80, this may be something to seriously consider for people that have felt burned just two days into playing a game that isn’t as fun as it looked in trailers.

There are multiple library networks in my area. I’m sure at least one of them does.

It’s sad to think that with physical copies going away, libraries won’t be able to loan them any more.
