I’ve mentioned it before, but it bears repeating. UMD is a cool format from Sony that didn’t need to exist and frankly is a waste of shelf space. Target and other major retailers seem to be catching on to that fact and are axing UMD. I think this is a great move for everybody including Sony. (more…)
Life is busy. Really busy. Not only is it busy, but it’s expensive. Console gaming prices are outrageous. Sure, they play movies now, but for crying out loud they don’t need to cost $500+. Video games are first and foreomost games. They are fun. They entertain us. That’s what they are for. (more…)
According to a report in Next Generation, Wal-Mart will soon stop selling UMD movies and most of Hollywood is also backing out of Sony’s portable movie format. Why? Sales of UMD movies have died completely. None of the UMD movies are making any money. Chalk this one up as another Sony format failure.
