As the director of a historical video game preservation institution, and someone who has dedicated his entire adult life to this cause, this is accurate. We have attempted to work with the industry's trade organization to find a legal path forward, but they refuse to offer a meaningful alternative.

piracy is the only extant form of media preservation that exists in games right now, you might find it morally reprehensible but there is literally no other institution that will keep games alive in 25, 50 years' time

Guess who got older today and can finally make this joke✨ ✧ #wandasart #wandasocs #furryart ✧

Microsoft this week: We're laying off half the industry. Sony: We're ending physical games. Nintendo: have u seen this splatoon weapon we call it the bloblobber

In his notes for the Pondering Emblem, Olimar says he’s been pondering buying it because The Ship™️ said it’s “extremely valuable”. The Pondering Emblem is worth 100 Pokos. Olimar is seriously considering spending over a years worth of his salary on a bottle cap just because The Ship™️ told him too.

In his notes for the Unbreakable Promise, Schnauz says that the stone is made of the “hardest substance in the universe”, meaning a diamond. This is actually false, as diamonds aren’t the hardest thing. That’s actually Lonsdaleite, a different allotrope of carbon commonly found in meteorite debris

Gift art matters not cause you asked for it. Not cause it looks good. It matters cause you never asked for it. It will always be amazing cause they wanted you to have it, and as something you never asked for. Them wanting you to have without you ever asking for it is what makes it beautiful.

In his notes for the Flashy Monument from Hey!Pikmin, Olimar says that when he was “a little Olimar” he craved attention and did all kinds of stuff to try to be popular. This is continued in Pikmin 4 with his notes for the Dapper Rubber Cutie. Fun little continuity detail.
