  1.  Do all video games really deserve to be preserved?  I don't think so.

      Maybe not ALL...But MOST is a nice idea  (see above)...Completed games I'm thinking...Not my Apple BASIC game from computer class in 1984.

      I believe all software should be preserved. It started it's life in digital format and should be remembered in that form. Just because it was flashed to physical hardware and sold doesn't mean it should stay that way. Everything has a shelf life and when that expires, much of this software that could be enjoyed for generations to come will be lost forever. I understand some are against emulation and digital preservation (especially hardcore collectors). However in reality it always was digital and nothing other than code. HC collectors still have their physical copies and that's cool. But many like the convenience of emulation while keeping their systems and carts stored on a shelf for aesthetic purposes (like myself).

      Might as well preserve them all. "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it." and all that. ;)
