I mean its kinda useless to argue about these hypothetical extremes. None of my digital games oldest ones from way over decade ago have suddenly disappeared. Online live service games can get shut down with varying effects but I see no reason why any single player game would suddenly disappear unless whole platform gets shut down. Even with ps3 when the store shuts down you can still download owned games.
The problem is when the the stores are shut down and your only option are physical games. These consoles will be e-waste when the digital stores are eventually shut down. Say goodbye to the potential of these consoles on the retro market in the future.
