What is the common thread in all those games(besides the fact they arent computer games)? They are all multiplayer... unless you play chess by yourself.
They aren't archiving stuff for a few years, they want to keep things for generations. When was the last time you played The Oregon Trail? We all loved that as a kid but nobody has an apple IIe anymore, luckily it is small enough it has been ported to other systems but there was also financial incentive to do so.
Even ignoring the fact that in 50 years the client won't be compatible with current operating systems, where are you going to legally obtain an EQ titanium client in 2050?
Anymore strawmen on the farm?
