I think that game streaming is going to be the gaming industry's next big push to normalize, because there's no way they think that people are just going to up and buy this. They're going to say the best way to play it locally is like this, but you can always stream all the games on your devices.

Next, which leads to my next sneaky suspicion about the Next Generation. I think they will inevitably stop selling you games and only let you game stream eventually so people can't pirate them or decompile them anymore. Remember how the Switch had those cloud version games, but on steroids?

It’s why I’m okay with having an extensive backlog and buying games on the cheap despite having so much to play already…I’ll be chewing through this library for a long, long time.
