I’m a huge board gamer and do appreciate their availability at libraries, but I do not see it as a necessity. There is so much bloat in board gaming, but good games are always preserved via reprints (and you can identify whether a game is good by this feature). I can see the same thing happening with video games - Nintendo HD remasters repeating throughout decades. Good games will always be preserved.
I’m not worried about my kids/grandkids missing out on experiencing niche games or bad games, particularly from a library. Lastly, I have a hard time comparing any video game experience to that of a classic book, including cultural insights.

Bought one to replace a super loose N64 stick. Excited to see the difference!
