You, yourself, felt the need to bring it up, and why did you?
Because, it was clearly a factor that played into the OG Xbox One's downfall, that's why.
Used games policy that force new games and digital down people's throats.

And the vast majority of gamers CLEARLY prefer physical.
Spem, you are THE ONLY person I have seen both in public and on the entire internet, who is ok with this idea of an all-digital system.
Everyone else is dead set against the idea. And let me tell you why, for one reason.
So, get off your love affair and high horse with your digital preference and think for one minute
An all-digital system is alienating that entire vast majority of gamers who prefer physical, and will get physical if they have the chance.
That is their preference, that is their choice as consumers and as gamers, do you honestly think that it is a good idea to take that preference, and that choice, away from them? When there are 2 other console makers that DO give them that choice, you know what they're gonna do, they're gonna say "Fuck you, Nintendo, I'm going with Sony or Microsoft!"
Nintendo, has a whole lot more to lose than they do to gain if they go all-digital with the NX, for that simple reason. And they are in a position right now where they cannot afford to have another failed system, with the handheld market being pushed out the door by smartphones, and is evidenced by the declining sales of the 3DS/Vita as compared to previous generations.
And aside from the NES, SNES, and Wii, Nintendo hasn't had much success in the console business. Their entire hardware devision is hanging in the balance, they are RIDING on NX being a success.
And will alienating the majority of gamers, whom prefer physical, honestly help make that happen?
