Yoko Taro, the creator of NieR: Automata, says he’s genuinely sad to see physical games disappearing.

After PlayStation announced it will stop making physical discs for new games from 2028, Yoko said he believes it’s just the direction the industry is heading.

He admitted he thought physical games would survive as premium collector’s editions, even if digital became the main way people bought games.

“Personally, I’m saddened by the loss of physical media, but that’s just the way things are going.”

“As keeping control of physical distribution has its advantages compared to just releasing games on Steam etc., I thought that in the future, even if digital game downloads were pushed, there would still be expensive limited editions (like what we see with CDs). Seems I was wrong.”

Yoko also pointed to Nintendo’s Switch 2 Game Key Cards as another sign of the shift.

"What is this?"

"Your copy of the game, sir"

"No, that's impossible; it should just be a license... and how does it work?"

"You can install it anywhere on your PC, on your external SSD, or on a Blu-ray disc. No launcher or DRM required"
"Wait seriously?"

"Yeah" "Oh...Wow"

Japan’s Patent Office rejected Nintendo’s latest patent for monster-catching mechanics on touch-screen devices,The application number is 2026-019762.

The patent covered common actions like tapping to move your character, throwing capture items at wild creatures, summoning caught monsters to battle, and tapping on-screen buttons for attacks and items.

Officials said these rules are not new or special, they are just standard monster-catching gameplay already seen in games like Pokémon, with no real invention.

This patent belongs to the same group Nintendo is using in its court case against Palworld developer Pocketpair.

Nintendo changed the claims in February 2026, but the office still rejected it. They can try again, but the strong reasons given make it difficult.

The lawsuit against Palworld continues, and Pocketpair has already made changes to avoid issues.

Valve just won their lawsuit against Leigh Rothschild and his companies.

The jury found they violated Washington's Patent Troll Prevention Act with bad-faith infringement claims and breached a prior licensing agreement.

Valve awarded about $152,000 in damages.
