I have no idea what this means. They don’t make hardware. Maybe they can keep an CD press still running for their own published games, but what about when the PS6 and Nextbox don’t include optical drives? Do they start shipping read-only flash media?

Or is it all posturing to get praised?

the slight difference is that now it doesn’t affect profits

Personal computers and flagship phones? Yeah you can probably use exFAT.

Video game consoles and handhelds? Dashcams? Car entertainment centers? Cheap android devices? 100% going to be FAT32 partitioned with a Master Boot Record

I love how the arstechnica article words it like you will never need FAT32 and it’s silly to consider it.

I had to download fat32format I don’t know how many times because I needed to format an extra large SD Card or USB drive for some device. Microsoft really shafted exFAT’s adoption with their licensing.
