That's what I'm talking about.
A slide that reads "Presenting games primarily as consumer products undermines arguments to preserve and make them accessible as an art form." from a MAGFest panel. That panel from the Dark Knight Returns where he breaks the gun also is on there.

Finally did a silly little digital preservation bucket list item: scanned the actual CMYK plates used to print a video game box using an oversized film scanner, and combined them in Photoshop to make a "perfect" digital version.

shoshinkai software exhibition, tokyo, japan (1996) 'the spotlight was on n64, or "the evolving video game machine," as it was being touted by nintendo. a couple of examples of how the n64 might evolve in the future were on display at the show, including the 64dd.' web.archive.org/web/19961222...
the 64dd n64 peripheral is on display in a glass case on a stand (n64 sits on top 64dd). n64 signage is on the front of the stand. photo caption: our first look at the 64dd. we could look, but we couldn't touch. zoomed out display of the 64dd display with screens displayed above. attendees are wandering around or looking at the screens. a large n64 controller (attached to scaffolding) and n64 signage is above the screens. photo caption: this is the 64dd display from afar. this setup took pictures of show attendees, then mapped their likenesses in three dimensions on the screen.

Stores used to look like this.
A Discovery Channel store from the 1990s. Shelves are filled with books, globes and model planes. A large telescope is displayed in the foreground, and an interactive kiosk sits in the background. Halogen lights make the lighting dramatic, highlighting the displays, and an illuminated panel shows an image of the Moon.

*Almost* all of the notable franchises began with a film that would have been a perfect, complete statement if left alone.

Obviously, they were never going to get the rights to WaterWorld on Virtual Boy for this, but I like to imagine they at least made the phone call.

When were games old enough to get 'retro compilations'? Our new Computer Entertainer scans tell us 1985 (!), when the Golden Oldies compilation (Pong, Eliza, Adventure & Life) shipped: archive.gamehistory.org/item/dbd05fe... (MobyGames info on the comp: www.mobygames.com/game/1549/go... .)
