Heading into the early 90's, home computers had become more accessible to consumers, and DOS games were becoming immensely popular, even alongside the success console games were achieving. With the advancements in technology, games would abandon the DOS format and games were more regularly being stored on CD-ROMs. When it comes to retroactively cataloging DOS games for preservation, there's mostly little on the mainstream front that preserves this format.
On ClassicReload.com, there's access to over 6000 games, which aside from a vast line of MS-DOS titles, also has a large collection of obscure (to even some well known) games from the AmigaOS, Commodore 64, the C64's competitor the ZX Spectrum, arcades, Windows 3.X, and Sega Master System and Genesis games.
These games are readily accessible and can be launched right from the window free of charge. The topic of video game preservation has been more commonplace in the expanding digital age, and many titles are more susceptible to being lost in time. ROM hosting sites like these will always be a convenient way to experience a plethora of games from eras bygone.
