Between the Big three (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo), who is the worst when at the top?

Sony is not on the top anymore though

What bad press Nintendo is getting? Really asking because I'm not aware

This Game preservation is the biggest bullshit I've read in this gaming universe. Games are just a mount of bits that can be stored in any disc, they absolutely don't need preservation these days where everything is digital, anyone with a copy of a game is preserving it and the server won't simply go away, they have storages, backups, distributed all around the world. What exactly needs to be preserved? lol 

Its not as simple as bits and bytes. The large majority of games released by publishers are subjected to copyright. Which is usually for the authors life plus 70 years. They can contain material made by different artists/authors which must be granted permission to use, by law. Things like music in games etc can be owned by different companies and must be contacted and consented to use before, well using/reusing them.

So it has nothing to do with preservation. It's just business and companies deciding how they can profit further with their old content. 

You see, it's exactly the same thing of books and music, except you don't see music fans crying about Barbra Streisand discography disappearing in the wind. But well gamers are a different breed and have the ability to create issues over things that aren't really issues in first place
