Why do games cost more to direct download on a console than to buy a disc? Surely direct download saves the manufacturer costs on transport, shipping, actual materials for disks and packaging, setting up deals with retailers etc…

Because it’s much more convenient to buy and download digitally. So they know they can charge more.
I am part of the problem here for sure. If I want a game I just buy it from the playstation or nintendo online store. No chance I’d go to a store or fiddle with physical mediums.
