Jesus I thought it'd be obscure games but I randomly scrolled down and saw Duke Nukem games, a bunch of the F1 series, Jet Set Radio, Lumines, Mafia III, MultiVersus (don't care about this I just remember _so many_ people being paid to stream this, there was a lot of money behind it) and Wolfenstein (2009). I had no idea this was so prevalent

So there's a tactic of delisting a game to promote a remastered version.

When a game gets remastered it's still around, so what if the original version is delisted?
still sucks though

imagine removing the original lionking for the same reason

Fair enough
