there will forever be a part of you that feels sick and wrong for emulating until you realize that you're supposed to emulate select games and not dabble in hundreds of shovelware titles. imagine if you went to the store and bought 1000 PS1 games, what the fuck would be the point? research a game, get hyped and then find the perfect emulator and plugins for said game and make it an experience worth playing. if it doesnt emulate 99% perfectly and offers little appeal, avoid it.

change the ui to ozone and use a frontend to launch games like >>7240840.
with retroarch the sheer amount of supported systems and standardized options for everything really takes away a lot of work.

i can't imagine going to back to a lot of standalone emulators or ones without basic features, but there's a handful of systems I haven't moved to retroarch due to compatibility issues.

Retroarch actively adds work with its backwards and insane design.
Retroarch is just a clusterfuck of settings in a menu that is fucking garbage for changing settings.

maybe, but its a lot lest autistic then having to pull an emulator for each game, download a keyboard mapper program and run it in conjunction with a controller maping program, and after you finally find the controls you are comfortable with you find the game is shit and move on.

[Anonymous No.7241010]

>>7240995
Keyboard mapper?
Controller mapper?
That sounds like retroarch where you have to map an emulator to a virtual pad and your pad to the virtual pad you can't push the buttons to map any of it. And it doesn't support any advanced controller mapping at all.
Most emulators just let you map the controller directly in the menus.

Yeah just use retroarch's controller driven ui to configure your '50' emulators and just memorize retroarch's concept of a control scheme instead of standard conventions that standalone emulators follow.
Just fucking try mesen standalone and tell me that retroarch is good.

[Anonymous No.7241312]

>>7241243
ozone ui has proper mouse support, and all you have to do is configure a controller once and it will work for every single system(core).
you also don't have to configure systems out of the box for retroarch either because all cores work the same, and if you have to edit one its easy to have per system or even per game settings.
the menus might seem daunting at first but once you get used to it there's very little effort required.

like for a new system I choose the new core and make sure it runs a game. boot up launchbox, pick retroarch for the new game system's emulation and the core name and i'm good to go.
launchbox sees lets say 2000 games for that system, downloads the boxarts and game info and i'm literally done. just doubleclick a game's box and it loads.

Okay, I wanna change one simple setting and it's 3 menus deep and some of which may not even exist at any given moment and are unintuitively arranged and cluttered with shit you will literally never touch that should be in a config file or at very least sequestered away in menu called retroarch specific nonsense settings.

The whole purpose of purchasing something is to directly support the work of the people that made the product.
If all original developers of those games were still around and selling those games, of course I would buy it and support their work done... even to this day.
But there is no way I'm going to buy it on ebay, giving money to some greedy random bastard, or on GOG/Steam, where the original developers won't see a single cent of the money I spent on it.
So, again, no way i'm going to give my money to a publisher that retain the rights of the game, or to some random person that has the original game.

Oh, it's in the input menu that only exists when the game is running, that is different than the input menu in retroarch itself that only supports one turbo button. In the menu where instead of pushing the button you want to use for something you instead select it off a list for each virtual button.
Versus in the standalone where it looks like this.

wouldnt even need that much, just a couple screencaps and some autists
i know damn well that such markets are not monitored very tightly, as i knew several people irl during the silkroad years that were doing a similar trick buying and selling non-existent games to their own sock accounts in order to launder quick amounts of cash when needed.

muh retro is in a speculative bubble
i know we are dealing with something with a finite supply, and as time passes, that supply gradually trickles down. but that gradual drop in supply is totally incongruent with the prices that we are seeing across many systems and specific games. the only reason something like this happens is because of unchecked speculation. the perceived value continues to go up simply because it has in the past, and theres no practical way to shortsell it to keep it in check.
what the retro market is in sore need of is some good ol fashioned FUD

we all know the biggest problem here is that tons of scalpers and resellers are hoarding massive amounts of these games sometimes even whole cases as their retirement plans, artificially limiting an already limited supply. and, since prices have only gone exponentially up, they refuse to sell for less than they put in, confident that time will prove them right.
tl;dr
what they need is a little FEAR. UNCERTAINTY. DOUBT.
