If the gaming industry survive till then.
I got a backlog of like 200 games.. the gaming industry could die tomorrow and I still wouldn't run out of games for the next 5-10 years.
Assuming Steam survives, or your console manufacturer keeps releasing updates, or whatever.
In the cartridge days all you needed was the console and the cartridge. As the years go by, you rely more and more on online services, software updates, and so-on. Even for supposedly offline single-player games, many of them stop working eventually.
