Retro Gaming is expensive if you intend to play original games on original hardware.

I mostly play games I bought as a kid during the MSDOS era. Those you can play easily via
emulators. Same thing with the Playstation ones - original playstation, at least.

I have not tried emulation with anything more modern, so I don't know how workable such a thing
would be in practice.

If you don't want to resort to piracy and you don't happen to have original games from the old
days which you want to play, they are often for sale on digital platforms as remakes or
re-editions.
