i love richeh because at first glance she's quiet, withdrawn, and you think she's the shy kid of the group. but no. she'll kill you. that girl is ready to murder at any time of the day. just the stubbornest, most obstinate, most self-confident child on the planet. you try to tell her she can't do something, and she'll not only ignore you, she'll do the thing while conjuring sparkles and somehow utilizing crystals. respects maybe three whole people in the world and doesn't even try to hide it. said ACAB, out loud, to the cop's face after physically attacking the cop. best little girl representation of all time.

Games from older consoles are being made less and less available to the point so much of the industry's history could easily vanish without

Preserving classic videogames from consoles past.

I'm just gonna slide this on in here for anyone that is interested in preserving old games. They take it very seriously too, they want an archive of every single game. Like, they have lists of every game ever released for a system, and once that system gets old enough, they add it to their archive and start collecting. Their latest addition was the Xbox 360, they opened that vault up in September 2022, and proudly announced they'd finished their collection of games for it back in April.

Also, while their game archives are almost entirely complete, they've got another project of archiving the manuals that came with those games, and that is... considerably less well filled out. Their collection of Xbox 360 manuals is especially rough, they've only gotten manuals for three games. So if you've got some Xbox 360 games kicking around, and the manual's still with them, please consider scanning them and submitting them to the site!

Game preservation is important, but people rarely consider preserving the manuals as well; I really respect Vimm's Lair for being so thorough in their archival work.

I've been using Vimm's Lair for years, I have yet to see a single bad link or virus on the entire site. It's arguably the safest and most comprehensive archive of video games in existence. Preserved history

For those unaware, Vimm's Lair videogame 'vault' has been closed off from public use for a while. The archive still exists but it is of limited use for people who want to play the games themselves. Other videogame ROMs sites have also been taken down. It's a pretty depressing time to be a videogame enjoyer on a budget.
