These articles feel like cope. Most people aren’t as invested in physical media as our small corner of the internet. I doubt this decision will hurt Sony, and Microsoft and Nintendo will probably follow suit soon enough.
Look at the url, this isn't cope, it's an ad.
It's interesting, cause i just saw them mention this subject about gamers being mad at playstation in the national news in my country, so if that's anything to go by maybe it's causing more of a stink than we think.
It’s just a vocal minority. Every single sales metric available to us and publishers says physical is dead.
That's somewhat misleading. You can't reduce physical media availability then point at it saying "look people aren't buying it" because they don't have access to it in the first place, by design.
I mean I'm sure since digital media has become mainstream there's a shift, but it was a planned force shift to increase profits.
They haven’t reduced availability of physical Xbox and PlayStation games though. Ever. They’ve been making them, people just don’t buy them.
