Truly wonderful news. I've shared it with my game developer network in hopes to gain more support.
Thank you for carefully reporting on this issue and bringing awareness to the cause. ๐
What do you think?
There are many games preserved now that have inspired the games that we know and love today. Thank you to everyone for this tremendous effort ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ๐
And there are also many articles in their English newletters which are found here~

Complex Japanese copyright laws make the journey hard for the Game Preservatio Society which is why they need our support as individual donors to stay afloat and help preserve classics.
If you are a game developer and appreciate Japanese games please consider donating to this preservation effort ๐๐๐ป
Yay! This is honestly amazing news!
The @gamepresint.bsky.social aims to carefully preserve Japanese gaming history of the 70' and 80' but had faced difficulties with dwindeling support.
Decades worth of effort and history would have been lost forever.
Yay! Hello Kitty Island Adventure has been nominated for Best Game We're Still Playing~ โจ
Please go and vote for it if you've enjoyed the game ๐

Iโm glad we live in a day and age where itโs socially acceptable to not be on social media all the time.
Iโve not really been here that often other than to post some nice art weโve been working on.
