Sony's plan to drop physical media has sparked global outrage across mainstream media and gaming events🚀
✅Physical games continue to sell millions worldwide (often 40% to 50%+ of total sales in UK, France, Australia and Japan for Resident Evil Requiem and others), proving they are far from niche.
✅Over 60% of countries lack a PlayStation Store, and the platform blocks region changes, locking international users out.
✅Digital libraries are vulnerable to sudden removals without compensation, permanent account bans, server outages, and region-locked codes.
✅Going all-digital kills the used games market, eliminates retail competition, and drives prices up.
✅Publishers manipulate data by bundling microtransactions and DLC into “digital sales” to fake a decline in physical demand.
✅With hardware projected to hit $1,000, multi-year gaps between exclusives, and PC offering better freedom, dropping discs gives players little reason to buy consoles.
Physical media must be preserved, because it means:
1️⃣Preservation
2️⃣Ownership
3️⃣Not tied accounts
4️⃣Second hand market and trading
5️⃣Competitive pricing
Not to mention books, vinyl, and Blu-rays continue to be produced, despite the existence of a far more cost effective and convenient digital alternative.

#TheLionGuard animator uploaded another clip from another pilot showing the final designs of Bunga and Kion.
I didn't know that the jackals were going to be the main antagonists before the hyenas. It would have looked good like that in the series.
