The Video Game History Foundation has access to a large part of its digital archive today, allowing fans an unprecedented look at over 30k video game-related files.
The VGHF is a non-profit organization whose goal is to preserve and celebrate the history of video games. As part of its mission, the foundation has amassed a huge digital archive of video game magazines and other content in an effort to preserve the physical media for posterity.
In a blog post on the VGHF website (reported by arstechnica), the foundation's director Phil Salvador announced that a portion of the digitized library has been opened for the general public to peruse, available on the Game History Library page.
The digital video game library has been in the works since the foundation's creation in 2017 and includes over 30K files from various "" that the organization has accumulated over the years.
The virtual catalog includes promotional and developmental materials, concept art, magazine articles, and even audio and video files from many beloved video game companies and franchises. Among the digital files, fans can look through concept artwork by lead artist Tom Payne, promo art and flyers for every FromSoftware game from all the way back to, and many more files from classic game developers like Atari, Konami, Sega, and beyond.
