| Raze said: I simply disagree. Gamers won't stop gaming if all provided platforms go DD only. They won't be able to easily hack and pirate, so they'd either have to stop gaming or conform to the new standards. Plus, not all people are resistant to the concept, granted that there is either a location at a store they can get their downloads from (like a kiosk) or internet connectivity service improves in speed. |
Here's the thing, though
A DD-only model is necessarily going to lose money because it appeals to a more narrow userbase. There is goign to be at least one company who provides physical media solutions, and all the customers will go to them. You'd have a point if there wasn't going to be any alternatives, but there will be because not every company is blindingly stupid.
Again, if nothing else, Nintendo will be the guys to break that model.
