Lower the prices. If you are eliminating retail manufacturing and retail distribution, while also completely eliminating unsold inventory risk and retailer profits then i can only assume buying said product should come to a lower price for me, the consumer.

If you can do that then whats the appeal. Youre giving me less for the same price.

Nintendo has kinda been doing that with digital downloads of Switch 2 games.

A half-truth. Mario Kart World is $80 either way. Fire Emblem is 80 for the physical, Yoshi and OOT are 70 for the physical. I feel like they're not giving you a discount when you pay $10 less to get those games digitally. They're charging you what they view as the normal price and charging you a premium for the physical copy. 

I would not put it past them to make at least one more Nintendo game 80 and charge 90 for the physical copy.

Switch 2: 120 million (was 116 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)
