The Embracer Games Archive has lofty ambitions: to build a complete physical game collection encompassing every system, while acquiring and preserving legacy gaming hardware too. It's about honouring and celebrating the history of gaming, while offering access to the collection to developers, historians and more. Want to take a peek inside? DF Retro has you covered.
