This kind of behaviour just bolsters the case that copyright is too long.
At some point shareholders should start suing. How is this in anyone's interest?
Are you good if already purchased before the delisting date?
Yes, based on previous experience with this sort of delisting happening.
Genuine question, do you really own these ROMs or rent them from Steam? Practically speaking, as long as you can move the ROM files, sure. But legally?
You licence it.
In response to California law requiring this to be made clear, they have updated the purchase screens thusly: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/10/steam-now-reminds-you...
