Funny story, I was (and still am) a Fire Emblem fan and back around the time Fire Emblen Fates for the 3DS came out I went to the store with my mom to buy it however the first store we went to sold out and the second store also sold out except for one copy.
Literally the last copy they had was the Special Edition on the display case at the front of the store. I wasn't even planning to get the Special Edition but since I wanted the game so badly my mom got it for me. The box had some crease on the edges (and it's not like I can ask for another new copy) and the store also wasn't willing to give a discount but I got it anyways and now I could probably sell it for quite a lot (especially now with the 3DS online store closing) but I won't.
The thing about FE Fates is that there's 3 versions of the game: Birthright, Conquest and Revelation. There's physical copies of Birthright and Conquest but the only way to get Revelation is either through the online store or the physical Special Edition (which has all 3 versions). So now with the online store closing it means the only way to play Revelation is if you already bought it online before it closed, get the Special Edition or emulate it.

Wow! That's a really complex; I hate it when physical copies don't exist or when it's rarer to find them since digital copies of a game were the primary distribution method. Digital games really don't give you the feeling of ownership, and many of them are really only licensed to us in a sense anyway.
