TREE NEWS update: PlayStation founder Ken Kutaragi pushed back against anger at Sony’s decision to stop producing physical game discs, calling the reaction a “mentality issue.” The comments address consumer frustration over the shift away from disc-based games, a move that affects how players own and access titles.
PlayStation founder Ken Kutaragi dismisses backlash over Sony ending physical game discs
Kutaragi's framing turns a distribution decision into a question of consumer mindset, which is a notable way to deflect criticism from the platform itself. The remarks carry weight because of his founding status, yet they address ownership anxiety rather than the practical loss of disc-based access that players are reacting to. Whether that ownership concern fades as the shift proceeds, or hardens into a lasting grievance, is the open question worth watching.
