    It's not even that they want to make a profit off of old games. What they want is players to spend all their time in the new slop and if they can spend time playing retro games instead that would be a loss. Of course that's not realistic because treat addict g@mers and retro passionates aren't really overlapping but the suits don't know that they think there is one unique video games market

      Not to mention all the remakes game companies are churning out. I don't think people would be as eager to buy them if the originals are accessible.
