What we were trying to do with SNK 40th Anniversary Collection:pic.twitter.com/qRlZrZYged
With its museum feature, SNK 40th is like an interactive art book about SNK in the late 70s and 80s.pic.twitter.com/sSdE2Hh5GF
We wanted to include home console versions alongside arcade versions. Often companies are resistant to that, like “Why would you include the inferior version?” But we’re historians!pic.twitter.com/o6mvq4RpNx
Cifaldi is now talking about the CONSIDERABLE thought and work that went into adapting the controls of SNK’s rotary joystick arcade games (the Ikari Warriors games, etc.) to modern gamepads for the 40th Anniversary Collection.pic.twitter.com/3DpKgddIrr
But all of us in this work of preserving old games use MAME. It’s volunteer work that we’ve been exploiting for decades. Let’s stop being ashamed about this or pretending it isn’t true.pic.twitter.com/2te2YBMRgo
MAME is not infallible but it is invaluable. You also need to research other sources. Like we watched YouTube videos of gameplay on actual arcade cabinets.pic.twitter.com/rPr7ZXTSJj
It’s the human interaction with games that drives everything we do.pic.twitter.com/1b9xx6EQbc
And there’s SO MUCH MORE WE CAN DO! But we can’t do any of it if these games are lost.pic.twitter.com/Ucmgcopgdl
After talking a lot about games, marketing materials etc. for games that are extremely difficult if not impossible to find today:pic.twitter.com/OulQrKWKF9
So, if you work on games, hold on to materials of all kinds, send them to:pic.twitter.com/FFVFuMppRg
If you own the intellectual property, put it on the Internet Archive! If you don’t own it...I’m not a cop!
“I want to live in a world where historians like me don’t have to reverse engineer binaries!”pic.twitter.com/7rXXHxtVfb
Let’s figure it out together. FIN. Thanks so much for the great talk on this important issue, @frankcifaldi!pic.twitter.com/7uXhyx4QNP
