This guy has been on the board for a long time, and always screams and whines like a child anytime someone dumps/shares anything he doesn't personally care about. Based on how angry he is, I suspect he's under 5ft9.

[Anonymous No.8877062]

>>8877056
So someone had to go to the country, and find the specific place they were still selling this old video game, just so people could play it, and that's not "lost" to you?

News flash zoomie: that's how the majority of people acquired games back in those days, not downloading them off of links posted on discord and twitter

[Anonymous No.8877087]

>>8877075
Not really though. When a game came out, you could be pretty sure that one of your local places would be carrying it. If people know of something, and none of them know where to acquire it, and it takes a lengthy search just to bring up one copy, how does that not count as a lost item?

[Anonymous No.8877107]

OP gives a real "angry EOP stuck being a teacher's assistant in Japan" vibe.

[Anonymous No.8877108]

>>8877087
Not every game was sold in every store, zoomie. Back in the day we used to call what you call lost "sold out". When Super Mario 64 first came out I couldn't initially find it at any of my local stores, so I did what any normal person would do: wait around until I could source a copy. And... wait for it... there's hardly any stores around which carry that game anymore.

Yes, but you know there will be a copy available, because it's Mario 64.
>there's hardly any stores around which carry that game anymore.
Yeah, no shit, but roms are available, or you have your pick of about a thousand copies on ebay at any given time. Therefore, not a lost game.

There were no roms available of Bangai O back then, you had to go to Japan to buy it. Doesn't mean it was ever a "lost" game, unless you use the zoomer definition of lost and only consider it unlost whenever some chinese guy dumped the ROM

[Anonymous No.8877145]

Behold, an actual lost game. It was never sold in any stores, and the batteries which kept the RAM alive died, so the contents are lost forever.

[Anonymous No.8877148]

>>8877125
Except you could pretty reliably go to Japan and find it in a store, or get it imported. When you don't even know where the game is, and no one else seems to, then it's lost. I don't see why you're struggling with this.

[Anonymous No.8877168]

>>8877148
Bangai O had a very low print run, you were never able to "reliably" get a copy at any time back then, the difference is that normal people don't obsess over it and wait patiently for a copy to show up instead of making reddit memes about it. Same as the game in the OP, which there are copies for sale online right now btw (because it was never "lost")

If something comes out, passes everyone by, and then years pass, then there is a chance that every CD got thrown away, or left in a dank corner to rot.
This is how all of those old TV shows got lost. People didn't think to preserve the tapes, because they didn't think they were worth anything.

You have mental illness. That makes just as much sense as saying some radio broadcast of a random DJ is "lost media" because no one ever taped it. By that metric any ephemeral thing could be defined as lost media, the shit I took last night is lost media because I flushed it down the toilet.

Seems that way. Never heard of MetalJesusRocks until /v/ started shilling him and looking into it, found out he makes the type of content OP's sperging out about. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the threads asking for hidden gems came here after watching his vids.

[Anonymous No.8877367]

people should be able to play games without having to give a bunch of money to someone who had nothing to do with actually making the game. If you want a hard copy you can buy one at exorbitant prices off some autist that got it in japan in 1997, if you just wanna try it you can download it for free, that doesn't devalue the physical copies because there's still only so many of them. gatekeeping rare games is for autists who cant stand anyone being able to play their epic grail without sinking money into it. Chu Teng has been around for years anyways, Zeddas 3 was the big one that pissed off the sperg collectors.
