The day old 2-d sprites become irrelevant.....a large amount of consoles will die from lack of support from consumers.
The current trend of releasing HD remakes of classical 2-d sprites games (and emulation to a degree) is beginning the death of many consoles libraries, which will end the support for the console itself.

That would be an incredible site [sic]. Not a good one, but an incredible one for sure.
I think he meant that it signals the death. I don't necessarily agree, though. Namco Classics Compilation was in 1995, and plenty of emulated games were released for sixth gen consoles early on in their life.

I do. And it's not like they take that much space. Game.com was pretty horrible (but it was innovative nonetheless) and N gage was technically more advanced than GBA.
My WTB thread (Sega CD/Saturn games) Also looking to buy: Ys III (TG-16 CD), Shadowrun (Genesis) Hori N64 mini pad and Slayer (3DO) in long box/just the long box
Well, they can die from a spike in power that overloads the fuse and blows the motherboard I guess. Also, when a part like a disc drive or PSU fails and nobody bothers to fix it. There are a couple of ways right there it can die.
