No. We take games that are no longer sold by any legitimate source, no longer supported, and whose owners are no longer interested in protecting their copyrights.
Contrary to your belief, these games ARE still copyrighted. Depending on the country, copyrights on media can last for anywhere between six decades to over a century... and it's counted since their last use by the owner.
We do not sell any games. What gives you the idea?

if the games are no longer copyrighted it means they enter into a GPL license GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE ( As in free for anyone)

This is not how GPL works. Your argument is invalid.

Because we make sure old junk nobody else bothers to sell, support or even protect their own interest in doesn't get permamently lost? Wow. That's harsh.
