Bitcoin ecosystem’s group of ninjas, campaigning to preserve classic video games using blockchain infrastructure, wrote code for the classic home video game console Nintendo 64 (N64) on the Bitcoin network. Ninjalerts’ CEO Trevor Owens announced a development in their ongoing Pizza Ninjas project.

Major Achievement in the Bitcoin Ecosystem

Owens explained that their developers were able to write N64 code on Bitcoin using the Ordinals protocol. The executive mentioned that this is part of their efforts to protect endangered games.

While games placed in the blockchain ecosystem have faced criticism due to copyright issues, Owens assured the community that their project is legal. The CEO of Ninjalerts stated that they have not placed any copyrighted games on the blockchain. Instead, they are careful to select games that are in the public domain. Owens commented on the issue:

“We want to advance conversations with conservationists about classic games and hope that the community can make an effort to find legal ways to add critically endangered games to the chain.”

This is not Ninjalert’s first attempt to protect games through the Bitcoin network. The Ninjalerts team had written code for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) on Bitcoin on January 8th. In addition to preserving games, the project also undertook an initiative to raise the technical bar for Bitcoin Ordinals projects.

Significant Developments in the Blockchain Field

Weeks later, another developer attempted to write a video game on the blockchain using Ordinals. Following Ninjalerts, a developer going by the pseudonym Mini Doge wrote the 1990s-style first-person shooter game Doom on the Dogecoin blockchain network on January 23rd using the Ordinals protocol. This allows users to access the Dogecoin network and play a free version of the classic game.

Owens believes the trend of writing games on the blockchain will continue. “I think this is really great and believe this trend will continue,” said Owens, who sees people wanting to preserve cultural history, with games being a significant part of it. However, the executive called on community members not to violate copyright laws. Owens advocated for finding legal ways to preserve games on the blockchain.
