Shutting down the test does not necessary meens wine will break the 9x stuff 
over time. actually we just always need to do something like skip() or broken() 
and that's nothing else as ignoring the test results of 9x and as you still 
play that game i guess wine still works here.
True, but what happens IF the game stops working? Will a bug report with regression test be accepted or will it be rejected?

You can see there is a little fear if we stop testing Windows9x completely. However, if we move the Windows9x VMs out of the way so we can concentrate on current versions, that is a good idea as some functionality of the current Windows versions does not exist or is vastly different.
