About SavePoint Archives
Founded with the mission to preserve video game history for future generations, SavePoint Archives operates as a digital museum dedicated to gaming heritage.
Digital Heritage Preservation
Video games represent one of the most significant cultural developments of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. As this medium continues to evolve rapidly, countless artifacts, documents, and stories risk being lost.
SavePoint Archives was established to address this challenge. Through digitization, documentation, and presentation, we work to keep the history of video games accessible to researchers, educators, and enthusiasts worldwide.
Our team of archivists, researchers, and technology specialists work to create a digital repository of gaming history. Every item in our collection tells a story – from the earliest arcade cabinets to development tools.

Global Collaboration
Working with developers, collectors, and institutions worldwide, we build a network of knowledge and resources.
