I would argue the opposite. Barring the apocalypse the digital nature ensures the immortality. Also plastic will hold up way better than some organic wood.

but thats the irony though isnt it? using gaming systems specifically over more powerful and accessible computers to make electronic music. granted this is nearing that slippery slope of: "what is chip music?" which i dont think is worth exploring in this thread. but i do think its worth pointing out that at the speed at which technology is advancing its a bit contrary to use game systems to create music-many of which are at least 20-30 old already.most instruments if properly cared for gain qualities overtime, not sure if gaming systems will or can. its sort of like using an etch-a-sketch to make art, yeah you can take a picture of it and preserve it but you know you gotta shake it up and lose the image to make another.

i mention this only because i've had to erase a few songs to make room for new ones on my cartridges, which has this neat almost buddhist quality to it, whereas when recording in cubase or something i can just dump the finished tracks onto a portable hard drive without a second thought.
