Right, but that's not the availability problem that this survey is highlighting. They're always going to be available illegally - no one's debating that, even the VGHF folks have said as such.
The problem is that video games aren't legally protected for institutional use the same way books, movies, music, etc are.
I'm not sure if you said this tongue-in-cheek, but we know that they've already done this as far back as the Wii Virtual Console.

Lol and the AVGN has a whole basement full of them as well…
