Technically this study defined “lost” as commercially unavailable, meaning those 87% of games can’t be bought legally, but they’re not lost forever. We have entire console libraries from the 1970’s to the 2000’s available online. Old PC games I’m not so sure about.

Technically for a game to be “lost forever”, it would have no physical cartridge, and nobody ever found a way to dump it onto one. Which is extremely rare and borderline impossible for games before 2010.

it's cooler to pretend they're all lost forever.

I’m still 100% in support of game preservation. Because even if I think Minecraft Story Mode sucks, that’s just my opinion. I don’t want to see that game be lost forever and be made unavailable to the people who love it.

I’m much more concerned for new games that are always online, never released physically, or are only available via cloud gaming. THOSE are the real “lost forever” games
