This is largely dependent on where you live and how successful was the game. Less successful games are pretty hard to find. The odds of a game being removed from digital stores are pretty much noexistintent. They getting out of print in other hand is the standard. It's in fact so common that right now the industry is living from remakes and remasters. It's a direct consequence of the absence of digital stores to preserve older games getting sold years later, with some upgrades in resolution and framers framerates they can be sold 60 USD again Digital is just much better to ensure a game can be found permanently... well at least in theory. Nintendo and Sony keep shutting down their stores and they should get more backslash for this. I mean... games purchased 15 years ago on Steam are still possible to find and download. Digital is not really the problem, the problem are console makers. It's not hard to understand why PC gaming is so superior. |
Well this is just not true. Just today I was looking for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 and 2 for PC. Go ahead. See if you can find them digitally anywhere. You can't. They have been removed from Steam and every other store. Ubisoft has already delisting a couple of games, and more are coming very soon. |
I remember in 2018 Agetec delisted all their Eshop games and when Digimon Cybersleuth Hackers memory came out the first game was delisted from PSN so the only way to get the first was to track down a physical copy.
