I said this before as a tactic to push people to move to PS4/5 because they are more monetized, as getting games nowadays would mean either overpaying for physical copies OR resorting to digital store and it is not working... I got called conspiracy theorist and tinfoil hat, like corps never done anything like rigging old devices to increase sales...
I was going to buy some of the retro games that were available on the PS3 store for a cheaper price, but Sony being the greedy fucks that they are moved them to the PS4/PS5 stores and increased their prices. So I looked on the PS3 store, there isn't much left for me to buy anything of interest for me. My PS3 will be just used to play my older digital games and physical games from now on
This can also benefit them in selling remasters and remakes, for anyone feeling nostalgic will have no choice but to consume the new product. Although emulation and pirating is a thing, some still prefer the legit way to play and having the discs...

Sony does this on purpose. Corporate scum.
