The Game Availability Study published in partnership by the Video Game History Foundation and the Software Preservation Network found that 87% of video games released in the US before 2010[…]simply aren’t in print anymore.
This doesn’t even make sense. You can still buy old games physically on Ebay, and you can also emulate them.
Back in 2010, nobody was saying that games from the 80’s were “endangered”, because it was understood that video games are generally enjoyed through physical copies or emulation. But now that everyone is used to buying games digitally, suddenly those old games are “endangered” now? It makes no sense.
