Damn Sony/MS/Nintendo must be getting some nice bank outta digital sales.

Yeah.. but this can't be recieved good with the retail partners..  Sony/MS/Nintendo will be pushing digital more as they earn more money with it..  while the publisher don't really care.. but retail will not be happy if Sony/MS/Nintendo snatches sales from them..

More to it than that though.  Retailers get the double wallet penetration with none of these being able to be sold on the second hand market (Looking at you Gamestop).  

While the publishers do get something extra out of this...no used sales.
