Sepreth(@Sepreth):Nippon Ichi CEO Kenzo Saruhashi says they’re in “discussions” with Sony about the end of discs. At PAX West: “I think that they’re hearing a lot of the feedback from customers.” Code-in-a-box is one option. “It’s possible that the discussion may change in the future.” NISA’s business is limited editions. He says they still intend to keep making those. Disc manufacturing for new games is still slated to stop January 1, 2028. Clearly leaving the door open.
