Sony's announcement that it plans to stop producing physical PlayStation game discs starting in 2028 has been met with widespread pushback. You'd think among everyone dismayed by the decision, the CEO of a brick and mortar video game retailer would be particularly irked, but GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen has completely dismissed those concerns.
In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Cohen was asked what sort of business impacts Sony's decision to kill physical discs will have on GameStop. "It doesn't matter at all," he said defiantly. "It is totally, totally irrelevant."
