In this light, the file label is a symptom of abandonware anxiety. Gamers fear that without decentralized archives, Sokal’s artistic vision—his hand-drawn backgrounds, his mournful soundtrack—will vanish when Nintendo shuts down Switch servers a decade from now. The “update” files are especially critical, as official patches are often lost when a publisher goes bankrupt or loses rights (Microïds, the publisher, is stable, but the fear remains).
