Hitler was an artist. There are plenty of bad artists that shouldn't have work preserved.

Why so? Everything should be preserved regardless of who made it.

His art was mid, and he was obviously a monster. We should still preserve his art.

wait are you telling me that people can't play all games at the same time all day forever? that calls into question what business people always know to be true, which is that resources are always available and unlimited. surely they can't be mistaken. you don't become a CEO without being a genius.

We have to be able to learn from the garbage and why it was garbage.

Ezpz for me to sign

killer queen black still pisses me off. It was still 100% playable without the servers (if you had people to play with), yet they killed *all* online functions entirely and delisted the game so you can't even buy it as a couch play game anymore.

the Holocaust could have been averted if Hitler was allowed to be an artist, even though he wasn't very good at it by the standards of his contemporaries. Art has value even if it is "bad".

70% seems super low, I'd say 100%. Given enough time, if the online component is not released or emulated, that portion of the game that requires it WILL die. It is inevitable.

Besides, some garbage can be turned into entertainment. AVGN and all the youtube poop using CD-i Zelda wouldn't be the same

In the case of games, this is doubly problematic due to patches and updates. People can still play Fortnite and Overwatch today, but they can no longer play those games as they were in 2018. Anyone that never played previous versions can only read changelogs to get an idea of what changed and when.
