Do you prefer to play on emulators or on old hardware?

Original hardware is cool and all but not when you're paying 80-100$ per game because of scalper shitbags.
I'll stick to emulators.

It’s not a zoomer thing but it’s a normalfag thing, I always saw the Jews with their MacBooks playing Mario world on an emulator in class. It wasn’t even the original version it was the Seppo one

this is a léddit meme now.
posting this you're associating with that site and you must now return from whence you came.

Why not both together like a true 90s chad

Yeah modern games are expensive, but retro stuff rarely reaches prices that high, most CIB Famicom and Super Famicom stuff averages 500円 to 1000円, PS1 stuff is like 200円

>What do you mean you used an emulated version with an English translation patch instead of learning Japanese and buying a Japanese console to play the game on it's original hardware

>both
hey bro why stop at both, we can do even more
we can do software emulation sure, but what about fpga hardware emulation too, and then of course the real deal, maybe even the real deal with some modifications for modern output support

Happened earlier this week to me. Old hardware isn't always reliable to work. That's why keeping things alive through Emulators and Archiving is so important. How many games nowadays can't even be played because of an always online function? Hell you can't even play the original version of Fortnite anymore if you liked that more.
So many games are just lost to time and never able to be played again.

Yeah but they're still more than 0
