/vr/ - Retro Games

Telling somehow how they should play and enjoy their games is just pigheaded and stupid. Retro games, or any games for that matter, should be played how ever the person playing them wants to.
They decide to take lag into consideration? great.
Image processing, both by the system itself and whatever display they end up using? awesome.
Maybe they decide to take different tricks and effects into consideration, and how different systems may make use of them more often than others? Just dandy.
But let them decide what they like best, authenticity be damned. If they ask you for your opinion or just some general information, go ahead and offer it, but don't state something subjective as objective fact.
If there was one set way that games were meant to be played, they'd only output that given way. People are given options and allowed to choose, and that's how it should be.

Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy playing some SNES or what have you on my composite only TVs from time to time and grew up with RF over twin-lead. Did I enjoy playing the games like that? Hell yeah, but having access to and knowing what I know now, there's no way you could get me to go back.

Also mandating consumer sets only is silly; Dithering works perfectly fine over composite even on professional equipment.
Admittedly, this is RF from a Model 3 and then processed into S-Video by a VCR. Should probably hook up the Wii over composite for a better example, but whatever.
