[RUMOR] Walmart to start removing physical Xbox games from store. Starting with Starfield (marking down to 3 cents potentially)

[ORDER_66]

its ridiculous because the disc version on amazon is still $63... MS still wants that money it seems...

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

MS is paying for Walmart to dispose of their stock? That is such a waste.

I mean like at least half the Xbox console populace can't buy physical games to begin with. The Series S doesn't have a disc drive. Then the game is on Game Pass so the Series X people can get it there.

I haven't bought a physical copy of a game since 2015.

I ordered papa Johns the other day

I think the red pepper and Parmesan packets were .10

I really don’t think red pepper should cost more than a multi year developed game but Xbox gonna Xbox

Sell games for the price of an old postage stamp, Xbots

In seriousness, I think Microsoft is too early to try and go all digital all the time. The Sony leaks showed that the majority of sales are physical for them - something like 60/40 por 65/35, IIRC, somewhere in there - and I would imagine that Nintendo is similar. I would guess that Nintendo's voucher sales to encourage people to go digital by basically doing a 3-for-2 sale on digital games are partly because most people on Nintendo consoles buy physical.

Then again, their goal long term is to be a digital services company in the video game market, so it makes sense in that regard.
