| Darwinianevolution said: With the console market evolving in new and different ways (becoming a multimedia center, streaming, unified handheld-home console...), the digital media is going to overtake the phisical market in an undefined future. However, most of us wouldn't accept a full digital-only console right away. But what if someone makes a digital only console next gen? What if someone makes a model without DVD reader at a price 100€ cheaper? Would that be interesting to the consumer? Which company would try it first? EDIT: What I meant was some company releasing their console as usual but, alongside the regular machine, releases one model without DVD reader that is 100€ less or cheaper. A digital only console is too far away in the future. |
Sony had already done full digital-only with the PSP Go. However the original PSP had more support for games sadly which I thought the PSP Go would have a better chance if Sony actually supported digital games as much as they do now.
I don't think the world will ever be ready for digital-only. Customers would always want a physical form whether its a disc or a cartridge/sd card type.
