Why do Disk Drives matter?

[Mar1217]

Inherently, I can't absolutely say I'd quit gaming per say, but an all digital future would likely lead me to simply collection physical games as much as I can so that I can consume the media in tranquility and peace while I don't interact with future "traditional" generations.

Personally, the way people have consumed digital goods in recent times through subscription passes have devalued the games we play. The recent failings of the Gamepass are proof of it.

Anywoo, there isn't much else to say appart from the OP clear bias in this debate so in the meantime, I'll enjoy the fact that at least Nintendo still sees clear benefit to support physical media with their cartridge based system, so do the customers.

Heck we've never gotten so many avenues to buy so many Indies or nicher games that would've been only digital only otherwise. There's a clear market for it.

Trying to kill it would simply be a pure business oriented decisions to cease the complete control of the means to play our games.
