Hello and welcome to episode 75 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. Today we're going to dig into an interesting and potentially scary topic about preserving classic games. The Video Game Foundation published some very jarring data that almost 90% of classic games are unavailable to play. Let's take a look at this from the side of players, publishers and those trying to find ways to preserve these games. Are we too late and will some of these games disappear forever? Also in this episode, we tell a story about when Kit's life was almost ruined at San Diego Comic-Con. In our Never A Minute segment we let artificial intelligence take over the podcast and the results are shocking. We wrap it up with the latest news and answer questions from our wonderful Patreon community. It's all coming up right now.
