The market is still heavily favoring physical comics right now. Forcing the change won't make people switch to digital. They'll just stop reading them. There needs to be the incentive and infrastructure set up to make the transition easy for those that haven't adopted digital yet. The closest thing the industry has is Marvel Unlimited or Comixology, and neither of those have made that impact yet.
Gaming isn't transitioning, it's already there. The PC market is almost entirely digital at this point. Last year it was reported that 83% of all game sales in the UK were digital. Game pass is just gaming outing on a subscription model. Before that Xbox marketplace, PSN and Nintendo's eshop has been eating away at physical for years.
