EXP: Xbox's Business Aims to be Efficient, Small, and Discless – Nintendo Pow Block Podcast – Now Your Podcasting with Power!
Email your questions to the podcast here. With Sony ending PlayStation disc releases in 2028, reports suggest that Xbox’s next console, Project Helix, could also launch without a disc drive. This week on Expansion Pass, Edward Varnell and Corey Dirrig discuss how Nintendo may soon stand alone as the biggest supporter of physical game releases. While the Switch 2 has introduced Game-Key Cards, Nintendo continues to release its own first-party titles on full cartridges, and physical sales remain a significant part of its business. If PlayStation and Xbox fully embrace an all-digital future, Nintendo could carve out a unique advantage by continuing to offer collectible, shareable, and preservable physical games for fans who still value owning their purchases.Join our Communities:Join the Boss Rush Network Community Discord.
