"The Video Game History Foundation announced it will be launching its digital library platform later this month with “never-before-seen game development materials”, as well as “artwork, press kits, and promo materials from iconic video games”. The library will also allow readers to access 1,500 out-of-print videogame magazines stretching back to the early 1980s.

The magazine library will be fully text searchable, organisable by chronology, and allow users to filter mags by region, platform, publisher, and more."
