   "For accessing nearly 9 in 10 classic games, there are few options: seek out and maintain vintage collectible games and hardware, travel across the country to visit a library, or… piracy. None of those options are desirable, which means that most video games are inaccessible to all but the most diehard and dedicated fans. That’s pretty grim!"

   correction: piracy is desirable and will only get more important as time goes on and more ownership hostile mechanism like DRM and always online will be added....at least until game streaming (most likely by Microsoft thanks to GamePass drones) will make even that impossible.

     @DarkMahesvara piracy is the hero that saves retro games.
