I too hope more publishers would be open to allowing 3rd party archivers or just advocates in general to continue support older games on the market. Publishers like SEGA AFAIK are allowing older games to be supported on older consoles or even be allowed to be modded and created into new games. Like one example Sonic Mania that came to be from community modders creating their own representation on the old Sega mega drive sonic the hedgehog games. There are more communities that are supported abandonware like NFS Carbon online and Blur games where they have managed to enable the online functionality of those games again which helps to keep them active for generations to come.
