I don't support digital games at all.

If physical games dissapear then I will not support any "system" or company that does it.

I know for a fact im not alone on this.

You will be when physical games media dies. No ones going to stop them selves from playing Uncharted 6 because "there's no physical copy" but hipsters.

For some people like me, playing the game is only 1/3rd of the enjoyment. There is the tactical experience of owning it and the collectable aspect of it as well. Both of those will be lost when/if it's all digital. 

I recently bought a used SNES again off Ebay and some games to go with it. Some of them I own on the virtual console. Do you know how much more enjoyment I'm getting out of actually playing these games on a real console, with a real SNES controller via an old CRT TV? It's night and day. 

People like me, they are small in number, but they're out there. If it ALL goes digital or streaming, most of us will just find something else to do with our time. Either that or build retro collections like I'm doing. Those old games will never get boring imo.
