Vita already has games launching digital Day 1.
So it's not surprising that PS4 will follow suit.

Anyway I don't think digital distribution will be promoted TOO much next-gen. We need retailers to hold these midnight launches for games and expose these games to the mainstream.


Now why the hell would the mainstream person wait around at midnight for a video game?  Hell, I am a pretty damn active gamer for the most part and the only game I ever went to for at midnight was Smash Bros. Brawl.  I suppose you are trying to pump up the midnight launches for "hardcore".  The way you expose the mainstream people to games is by word of mouth.  How do you think the Wii sold so well.  It wasn't word of mouth from the "hardcore" crowd.  Most people that aren't avid gamers don't really give a shit if some pimply teenager talks smack about a video game.  They hear about it from a coworker, friend, or family member.
