Physical gaming is on its way out, and so this is one monopoly that must go with it.

Physical copies will only cease to exist once two things happen.

1. Pricing goes wayyyy down on digital copies (none of this launching at $60 and staying there for 3 years or more).

and

2. EVERYBODY has access to affordable and fast internet.

Without that second one, any company trying to release a digital only console (see: PSP GO) would be seen as foolhardy. Yet I imagine just like all of the other less than consumer friendly things (loot boxes, pay to play online, on disc DLC, etc) that have begun to feast on the rotting corpse of what was once gaming most gamers would just shrug and keep paying the ridiculously high prices for digital copies in order to keep enjoying their hobby.

But this is one gamer who would say adios if pricing didn't take a steep nosedive.

I'm not loyal to any company or brand, especially the Cult Of Houser(GTA games) or Sony(PS3/PS4/etc). Defending corporations is absurd.
