What about playing them on the original consoles? I've got a Game Cube and PS3 I still use occasionally, and a PS2 that I haven't tried in a long time but would give it 50/50 for just booting up if I hooked it up, plus some portion of the failure 50% includes the possibility of repairing it.
Original console, in most cases, is probably gonna be the better option IMO. But due to the rising cost of everything, games/consoles included, emulation is better from a purely price saving standpoint. I am lucky enough to have so many consoles, but I still emulate or use console softmods because I can't afford every game I want.
I also love how emulators make 40 year old games much more playable with features like state save.
Fast forwarding through slow unskippable cutscenes and slow walking parts.
Hey! That's cheating! (I do it too)
I knowwww but I need to get good at it without spending thousands of hours per game. I have kids and only maybe 30 years left to live lol
No disagreement there, I only responded because of the "ain't no other way" in your OP.
