Study finds nearly every pre-2010 video game is unavailable

Games from older consoles are being made less and less available to the point so much of the industry's history could easily vanish without

Vimm's Lair: Preserving the Classics

Preserving classic videogames from consoles past.

Vimm's Lair

I’m just gonna slide this on in here for anyone that is interested in preserving old games. They take it very seriously too, they want an archive of every single game. Like, they have lists of every game ever released for a system, and once that system gets old enough, they add it to their archive and start collecting. Their latest addition was the Xbox 360, they opened that vault up in September 2022, and proudly announced they’d finished their collection of games for it back in April.

Also, while their game archives are almost entirely complete, they’ve got another project of archiving the manuals that came with those games, and that is… considerably less well filled out. Their collection of Xbox 360 manuals is especially rough, they’ve only gotten manuals for three games. So if you’ve got some Xbox 360 games kicking around, and the manual’s still with them, please consider scanning them and submitting them to the site!

Game preservation is important, but people rarely consider preserving the manuals as well; I really respect Vimm’s Lair for being so thorough in their archival work.

Jalter canonically sucks at French

Jalter’s been bad at French since she named her first Noble Phantasm ‘La Grondement Du Haine’.

Amused by the fact that no other French servant bothered to tell her, they just let her butcher their language

She is canonically illiterate and learned how to read and write for the first time to write to Santa Claus of course her grammar sucks

Absolutely love this sentence

it’d be funny if after the super mario rpg remake that game was relevant enough to put a character in smash, and it ended up being Mallow instead of Geno.
