Friendly reminder that there is literally nothing wrong with not dumping floppy disks, cartridges and optical media of video games. A lot of people use those dumps to sell pirate copies.

What's more cringe?
>Spending $15k to rip and share a game so it can be preserved for all time (all 40KB of it or whatever)
>Spending $15k to explicitly stop the preservation "just because"
Ayden Flores
>A lot of people use those dumps to sell pirate copies
As opposed to what other product can they buy?
Jayden Perez
It's autism through and through
Kayden Lewis
Clearly the second option, absolute dick move.
Eli Barnes
The second is just massively autistic.
Jordan Moore
nothing cringe about preserving history
Xavier Hall
the latter without doubt, liking things is cringe but going out of your way to spite people who like things is more cringe
Isaiah Clark
Second option is more cringe. You can turn social media on it's head by posting "lol nigger", yet there are retards that spend tens of thousands of dollars to get a much lesser effect. They're basically the dude who challenges everyone to gay chicken and then starts sucking the other dudes dick just to prove he's the best at competitive gay chicken.
First option is just a few guys who want to see a bad game for the sake of seeing it, and honestly, the overwhelming majority of Zig Forums fits into that category with the shit everyone willingly plays just to see how bad it is.

No one gives a fuck about a cancelled video game. It isn't even linked to any famous video game director.
Benjamin Morales
I would care enough to drop it into my ROMs folder and probably never play it
Levi Gutierrez
Shkreli spent $2 million to prevent others from listening to a Wu Tang album. But really you can only blame Wu Tang themselves for that.
Jason Ortiz
>spending $15k isn't caring
Hunter Hughes
The best thing about this iteration of civilization is how poorly its records will be preserved.
Eli Brooks
>he thinks 15k is a lot of money
Angel Ortiz
I care. Even if I had lots of money, I don't think I would spend it on this stuff, but I still care.
Carson Cooper
First. You have to be a massive faggot to give a shit about trash games.
Second is for based rich retards that are willing to throw away their money just to dab on autists. You simply have to respect that.
Ryan Thompson
>You simply have to respect that.
I don't think very many people do. But OK
Adrian Price
Not him.
>You simply have to respect that.
No.

There are two Klonoa prototypes owned by two Reddit users.
A Klonoa 2: Dream Champ Tournament prototype cartdrige owned by an user named "ImDerpyHooves," depicted here:
twitter.com
He refused to release it writing this:
>Partially because I spent $400 on this over 10 years ago and because I never pirated/released any roms online. As it is now, the cart is a priceless treasure to me and my Klonoa collection. If released it will just become another number on a huge roms list and no longer special. I have made many scans of manuals, discs and magazine articles pertaining Klonoa and placed them on my Flickr for sharing and they get lots of traffic from viewers.
twitter.com
And then there is a debug beta of Klonoa: Door to Phantomile that still works.
reddit.com
The user never released it and never answered any comments regarding a possible release. He posted something unrelated to Klona two months ago.

Someone post the screen cap of that kingdom hearts fag and his shitty dvd getting btfo

Mike Mika (studio head of Digital Eclipse and friend of Frank Cifaldi) has found a bunch of Tengen floppies, that included source code for the Sega Genesis conversions of Ms. Pac-Man and Hard Drivin'.

Kevin Edwards has the source code for Magic Johnson's Fast Break, Silver Surfer and Wolverine for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

>I have them on PC now. Sorry, these cannot be made public.

>Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete source code lost forever? Not anymore. Found source, tools and assets on my old HD. #HOMM3 #Heroes3

>No HOMM2 source. I did the Mac versions of HOMM3 and HOMM3C only. I've made multiple copies of the source, but can't release it without ok.

What's the point of devs dick waving this stuff? I understand some schmuck that sold his kidney to get a shitty obscure beta 2.0013.05 trying to justify his retarded choice, but not this.
Anthony Morgan
He seems to at least want to get permission first which is a bit better than bragging about not dumping it at all, I imagine he posted them so that the people interested in this kind of thing can know they're at least archived so that sometime in the future they could be possibly released
Christopher Richardson
Well, at least for the case of HoMMIII, it is proof that Ubisoft has no excuses to not add the DLC.
For the rest, yeah, it's pure attention whoring.
Daniel Rodriguez
What’s cringe is thinking you’re entitled to source code for free. Everyone here bitches and moans about preservation yet would not have pitched together to fund a bid but rather whine about why it should be free. At least reddit/twitter can come together to work together while everyone here acts liked entitled manchildren.

Fuck hoarding faggots.
