Retro Games Classic games getting removed from GOG and possible any other digital store like Steam.

Retro Classix is a collection of 12 different classics originally developed by Data East and then re-published by Ziggurat Interactive. While they are leaving digital stores, you can still give them their forever home in your GOG library, and save 50% on each of them!

Too bad that's sitll kind of expensive, and also no word on them getting removed on steam, although they say digital stores.

I think they are already pulled from consoles, maybe some licensing issue? Anyway, the PC versions are emulators and they were kinda bad, don't know about every one of them but probably the same. If they will pull them from every digital front, these games will become adandonware soon. I wouldn't be hasty about to buy them. Collectors may think differently though.

I might have to nab Bad Dudes vs DragonNinja before it's too late

Strange that Fighter's History is still listed as coming soon on Steam.

Doesn't have to be some are coming soon for years, saving president kennedy or whatever took more then a year too.
Most likely that game will just never come.

If I can't buy them, it makes pirating them much easier to justify.
