Preserving the Games We Play: Discussing How 87% of pre-2010 Games are Unplayable

from Blowing Cartridges · host Blowing Cartridges

Last month in July 2023, the Video Game History Foundation released a report that suggests 87% of games released pre-2010 in the US are unplayable.    Thus, Brendan dons his history hat and alongside his Zach, dives into discussing whether this matters, what are the dynamics at play relating to making games available to play for future generations and ultimately what are the respective roles of industry and non-industry actors in this environment.    Have any comments?
