Do you support physical releases of games or prefer all-digital?
With the recent news by Sony about ending the production of physical media for PlayStation I want to know the forum's opinion on it, considering Nintendo and their recent decisions on pricing with digital versus physical and how some 3rd party Switch games only include download codes.
For the choice choose the one that you would support the most even if you happen to have supported both.

I’m so glad Nintendo and pokemon aren’t a “digital (oops) media only” company

Depends on what platform, not all storefronts offer digital sharing.

Ugh. My gaming systems are not and have never been connected to the Internet. Except for my mobile.
This is a sad sad day.
Let me guess, they'll remove the necessary hardware in the physical gaming systems (drives) but the price won't change. Are they now including extra storage space or is this all going to be subscriptions and in the clouds?

No whatever consoles were made with physical drives will keep em, but any new consoles won't have any drives.
