Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima Says He’s Left His Staff a USB Stick of Ideas for After He Dies, ‘Kind of Like a Will’ - IGN

Hot on the heels of revealing a number of discarded video game ideas and even an idea for a ‘Forgetting Game’ where the main character gradually forgets important information and abilities if you take too long a break from playing, Kojima has revealed he has left his staff a USB stick of game ideas for after he dies.

    Flash memory won’t last forever especially if it isn’t plugged in once in a while.

      Do you have a source? I’m not disputing you, I just wanna learn more on the subject.

        Overtime the the electrons in and flash dissipates if not powered.

        The amount of time it takes varies.

        All storage dies eventually. Flash memory (which is solid state) slowly has its data decay when it is not powered.

        You’re right to ask for a source, it should not be an offensive thing to ask for.

        Luckily others have answered with citations. I was surprised and dismayed to learn that solid state memory isn’t so solid in the long run.

          Maybe a better word would be Sturdy State - It can still topple.

    I’m not the biggest fan of his games, but every time I hear something from him, my respect for him goes up.
