It’s still baffling to know that 87% of nearly all games are on the verge of or already had been forgotten because the industry operates on this mantra of “if we don’t think it’ll turn a profit, don’t bother with it and if anyone pirates it we’ll still profit through lawsuits!”. If they truly have had it their way and no opposition gets in between them, they would happily have let so many libraries die out. And then we’ll only be left with regurgitated bundles that they hand pick themselves, to release.

Your nostalgia is just simply another marketing strategy.
