Well, for a lot of us old enough to have come up during gaming's golden years (80's-90's), it's going to mean something different. You see, to a percentage of us, the act of gaming is multilayered. You have the desire to buy a game, buying the game, unwrapping the game, taking the game out of the case, enjoying the way the print smells, reading through booklets, putting the actual game into the console, playing the game, taking the game back out, putting it away, putting it on a shelf, where it will be added to your growing collection, which is also enjoyable. All of this is what gaming was to many of us, so going to a digital-only future would be a lesser experience, because as you can see, the gaming part is only a percentage of a whole. Is that percentage enough? I guess we will see.
