Sure, whatever floats your boat. I guess whatever is "authentic" depends on what kind of set-up you had at the time (unless you're a larping zoomer as I suspect 95% of this board's population to be). In the gaming scene in the 90's it was pretty much a no-brainer for people who were invested in the hobby to rgb-mod their consoles, so I'm used to rgb-out and it doesn't strike me as "inauthentic". Also, European systems generally supported RGB out of the box, you just had to buy a garden variety scart-cable and that was that. At least I remember this being the case for the Super Nintendo. On the shit-stained flip-side, PAL games ran at 50Hz and with massive black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. So if you were a casual Eurofag in the 90's that's how you'd remember your games: Sluggish, stretched and with less screen real estate. Yes, that's how "the games were intended to be played" by the companies. That said, I don't know any people who were into the hobby back in the day who now yearn for this kind of "authenticity" - for enthusiasts in the 90's it's always been 60Hz and rgb or bust.

When did you realise that PAL retro gaming was superiour to Never Twice the Same Colour?

It's Basically SUBHUMAN - The conversions

It literally repulses me thinking about playing my games vertically squashed and 17% slower than intended and convincing myself that it is better.

How come America didn't convert to the obviously superior PAL format? It would have suited retro games much better.
