Luckily these consoles libraries have all been preserved by pirates. I worry about what will happen when a digital only consoles shop is turned off. Preservation for those console will be impossible unless we get Hacks
...so what will happen in the future when the PS6 online store closes? will these digital only games become unplayable? or are we going to live in a world where you're paying $70 for a twenty year old game? this is bleak..
i have a feeling this...
