In safes? Under pillows?
I've been thinking about the NES re-releases on the GBA lately and was wondering: where did they keep the source code for 20 years? Did they print it all out? Or on 5.25" back then and burnt it to CD some years ago? |

It's generally archived on Tape.
There are companies that specialise in storing it. |
