Resumen:Video games have become culturally significant in society and are deserving of being preserved. There are many ways to preserve video games such as emulation, migration, and reissue. But recordings of video games have the special designation of being able to faithfully depict a game, which is an advantage it has over other preservation methods. This paper explores the advantages and disadvantages of various preservation methods while putting recordings forward as an equal method that can assist in its own way. Furthermore the concept of documentary style videos for video games is explored with input by archivists as well as content creators that make videos about video games. Then what form these documentary style videos will take was discussed, with it being concluded that a shorter thirty minute video would be good for general audiences while preservationists would enjoy the longer raw footage. A handful of video games were used as examples and how videos of those video games were contemplated.
