But Nintendo can't even do that right. Last time I tried to play Sin and Punishment on the N64 VC it had a game breaking input bug. If they really cared about preservation they would look into producing their own recomps. But that would require.. you know, development? Which they seem to hate.

Games do have more technical requirements to maintain than movies do, but to pretend like movies are free of that is silly. It's from a long-term lack of imagination on how to profit from real preservation and a fear of change. Film has been able to profit off of preservationists, why not games?
