He also makes it clear though that he thinks that thought is absurd. It doesn't happen. Digital games are more secure than physical games, not less.

He might personally think that it's nonsense, but his consumers don't. Given that he follows that statement with saying there always needs to be a physical option, I don't think we will see any kind of physical Item that does not actually contain the game.

At least not as a solidary option. Absolute furthest I could see them going is to produce limited special edition physical media for people, with concerns as to preservation and a special NFC imtem for the collectors. I still think that's very unlikely though. I guess we'll see.

That's what I'm saying, though. He never specifically mentioned that they would be carts or disks. The fact that he even brought up that "we would see" how they would handle it in due course makes it sound like they are changing how it currently is being done. The NFC point was a wild guess that suddenly became way more tame.
