It doesn't matter what people want. Companies tell people what they want. That is what advertising is about afterall. If companies only offer digital distribution methods, then gamers will have to simply accept that or stop gaming. Disc based piracy is a lot harder to track than digital distro's actually, because anyone can burn a CD, but an encrypted ip-linked authorization key would take a whole higher level of hacker to get through. |
Oh no, you are quite wrong. That's the mentality that the HD consoles brought into this generation.
All it will take is one company - one - giving the consumer what it actually wants. If nothing else, I expect Nintendo to do just that.
Producers do not dictate to consumers. When they try, they tend to crash and burn, or else the consumer digs out their power base from underneath them (such as with piracy)
