If a video game glitch, at least one of some prominence among gamers, can no longer be viewed/triggered in upgraded versions of a game and either can only be accessed on older versions played on older hardware or has disappeared altogether in any playable sense, could that be a form of lost media or would that be pushing it?

I don't think the glitch in itself is the lost media but if the version of the game that had the glitch went missing, it does count as lost media. Although like all lost media, the glitch in itself should be quite spectacular or the version of the game quite glitchy to be of interest for the search

Yeah there's that too, or sometimes there would be someone that actually owns a copy of the game, but it's broken beyond repair because he/she didn't take good care of it.
