Sorry, but by the time any of our video game franchises reach public domain, they will be long gone and so will what we currently think of 'browsers, pcs, and games'.

 

We're already knee-deep in the revolution of 3D and motion gaming with both controllers and cameras. What do you think the next huge leap is after that? Virtual reality. 70 year old Zelda graphics... HA.


The phonograph is gone, same with vinyl records. But baroque music still gets played on my speakers today.

That's the beauty of being in the public domain: You can change the work. The graphics could easily be remastered, but the core mechanics are harder to change.
