As a manufacturer, you can't just tell a retailer, much less your biggest one, to frick off when you need them in order to reach your entire audience.
No one was. Xbone was still going to allow used games sales just on a limited basis and also forcing Gamestop to share the second hand pie.

So they will still need retailers to sell their games.
You can buy a digital download code from anywhere. You don't need physical locations for that.

Was not aware of that. Still some big restrictions that can potentially hurt GameStop's and other retailers' pricing structure and profitability on used and new games.

Well yeah, but that is beside the point. In the case of people who don't have the internet speed to make digital games viable, there would still be a need for retailers to sell physical copies.
