Something about this is very distressing to me.

Millions of essentially rich middle upper class banding together effortlessly to petition the government to save their entertainment. Meanwhile there are people spending their whole lives to get even a tiny sliver of support for things like human rights violations.

1. In my view, video games that stop working are a part of a larger problem with consumer tech right now, and you've got to start somewhere. Gaming is a hobby for a lot of people now, and therefore the most visible example.

2. Games are artefacts of our modern culture, examples of artistic expression (more or less). I don't think that every game, every song and every movie is worth saving, but who am I to disparage what someone else likes.
