I feel as though video games are the most underrepresented medium of preservation compared to other art forms like Books, Music and Movies.

[QUOTE="Deleted member 194275, post: 9753188, member: 194275"] While the current civilization lasts, any successful video games is preserved. The reason is that out of the millions produced, some copies will last. Also, the preservation culture (and even hoarding culture) are very strong on that community. And this is just for original media on original hardware. Flashcards (some of them are open sourced btw) and emulation are other preservation paths. We can't emulate everything today, but we can rip everything and save for the future. So video games are fine, other medias that are not. The OP mentioned movies, and yes he is right, is easy to watch harry potter today. What about "O Aleijadinho - Paixão, Glória e Suplício"? It was a movie released around the same time of Harry Potter. Some things will go away due to the lack of people who cares, but video games people do care (maybe except the flash and cell phone ones). There is a street here where I live named after a music. "borboletas psicodélicas" (psychedelic butterflies) is the name. There is no recording of that music anywhere on internet, that is a non gaming example of something that just went away for good.
