With the exception of cloud gaming (which is a particularly nasty thing for preservation), fortunately people still back them up anyway. It's not ideal because cracking is not a 1:1 binary in a preservation sense, but fortunately in many cases the original media can be backed up 1:1 and any necessary crack can be distributed for separate installation. Even if a pre-cracked version is the only thing that survives long term, it's still better than nothing.
