Are you suggesting its time to stop offering content digitally?

Because every time I see great digital deals, my first concern is, "I hope they aren't upsetting retailers."

Wii U great exclusives, frankly some of the same notable stuff on Switch. How'd that do?

Also, how well could X1 be doing with a few more notable games? Like how much better would it do?

Certainly verified by the number of exclusives and the sales of the console.

How will you be able to download the day one Patches expected with almost every game? Unless you have every game installed and updated with the launch patch (Which not everyone will have the space to do) Plus some times your own hardware can scratch and damage your own games. There are plenty of issues that you no longer have to worry about when going digital.

Companies do closed down, however a company closing down doesn't mean everything dies. Your Digital games will still exist in the Digital world it just means that company running the app will no longer be running the app. Also there are human rights. If a company decides to remove a game you paid for from your account there can be law suits. If you don't trust them than screen save your Digital Recepts.

One of my personal prime examples is my Super Mario Kart game's internal Battery no longer works, I can no longer save the game anymore. If Super Mario Kart was released Digital we wont ever have that problem. Half my NES games no longer work without me opening up the cartridges and attempting to fix them. 

So you are saying a Volkswagen Beetle is better than a Porsche 911 Carrera because it sold more? (Interms of better car no it isn't)

Quantity and Popularity never determines what is better.

We can argue that Xbox has better FPS and Racing games? We can Argue PS has better Action and Adventure games? All comes down to opinion. 

I personally think the Samsung Galaxy S8 is a much better Phone than the latest Apple Phones, yet Apple will always destroy the Samsung Galaxies when it comes to sales. Apple can basically make a bad product and it will still sell wonders. Hence why Sales never leads to better.

Unless I'm a bit crazy none of my gen3 to 6 games need any patching and also my 7 and 8th gen games can work without patches, they are all playable straight from the disc without patching... I can't say the same about several of the launch window Xbox games because you had to patch it to remove the always online.

Man are you serious? So Human Rights now takes care of your digital game ownership rights?

You not being able to save doesn't make the game unplayable, also you can fix the issue.

Nope. I'm saying the market certainly don't think Xbox is better. Also you gone a bit reaching on your fallacy, because you gone from comparing two direct competitors that sell at the same price against a Beetle vs 911... try opening a dealer and offering both at the same price and see if the Beetle would sell more then the 911 (also depending of the usage the Beetle would be better as well).

You can argue whatever you want, we know you would chose MS offerings against Sony.

But I'll wait for you to point to any objective evidence that shows Xbox is much better.

Nah, most general retailers sell tons of things purely for customer retention. We do so at work, nothing game related (including software) makes us money in any meaningful quantity, but we still sell it, because we want to retain those customers so that they come asking us when they want to buy something that DOES make us money.

A lot of gamers will become "retro gamers" then.

Everybody has its own moment when he/she quits. I ate paid online, DLC, and other stuff. This is a way 2much for me. King is signing off.

Yeah, you can be as childish as you want, or just try to argue the points instead :). 

And you are not giving an argument to seize with offering the console itself. Just replace "Xbox" with "PS4" and you might see how irrational it would seem then. I'm not upset one bit about their decision, they can sell whatever they want. But the reasoning seems illogical. If their argument would be that they will seize with selling Xbox because it doesn't sell well, that is only a rational step.

On the other hand, even when you buy a physical game, you actually buy a digital product, it's only the medium where it's stored that is different.
