I wonder if retail stores will think about seriously stop selling hardware if platform holders keep pushing for things like Gamepass. Why would they sell products that will enter in such clear competition with themselves? Retailers make most of their profit from software sales, after all...

Do they?  Gamestores changed from 95% being about games to 40% games and 60% merchandise and other stuff. Why sell only digital consoles anyway especially when physically sales seem to shrink on average year by year;..

Oh right, merchandising, I forgot about that. I was thinking mostly about software and hardware themselves. Still, they are selling products that are competing more and more with them, so that still sounds like a poor proposition for them.
