The reason why Xbox is pushing digital content and the Switch uses cartridges is because Sony owns the BlueRay technology and gets a cut for every BlueRay produced and sold in the world. The flaw with the digital approach is that any retailer worth their salt will instruct their employees to try and sell the console that will bring them more revenue in the future with 8 years of physical game sales, therefore creating an even larger consumer base. Sony wins.
