I just shake my head everytime I see these kinds of compilations released. I've been playing these games for years, through emulation. These bundles advertise being able to use filters for 'authenticity' gameplay, online playability and such. Emulators can and have long done these things too.

But, there are people out there, who'll wait for years on end for these compilations to be made and some shamelessly buy them. When you can cut all of that down by spending less than 2 minutes grabbing a ROM and grabbing an emulator before you're well on your way to revisit your old favorites.

Devs should [sic] be making new games unless they have a personal passion for preserving, which enough of them do.

I'm assuming you meant "shouldn't".

How about devs can do what the fuck they want to do? Why should you be the one to determine if someone is "passionate enough"?

Why did you assume I made a different argument than the one I wrote? Fuck off.

Ok, then please make the sentence I quoted make sense. I'll wait.

Because

Devs should be making new games unless they have a personal passion for preserving, which enough of them do.

Doesn't actually make sense.
