That's the problem of DRMed stores, not a problem of older games per se. For instance, GOG specialize in restoring old games, as long as they are DRM-free. Apple simply never cared about preservation use case.
Don't support DRM with your money if you care about this.

Its the fact that apple doesn't give 2 shits about backwards compatibility. Which is not entirely a bad thing but it means games will all eventually be unplayable.
