       Gaming history blazing hot take: if recreating the experience of playing old games via CRT shaders is important, it's equally important to recreate crappy old emulators so you can experience what it was like to play these games for the first time on a low-env 90s PC.

       I’m actually serious on this one - and I know Higan does this. We focus on the “official” ways of playing games when focusing on game history but so many people experienced these in unofficial ways. And those are real, important parts of game history too.

       @misty yes! I want people to be able to appreciate Chrono Trigger in a "can't have clouds and text on the same screen because transparency isn't implemented right" kind of way, as god intended

       @misty also I have argued for years that the best way to play the original gen-1 pokemon games is the way I accidentally did as a kid: emulated at 150% speed.They're turn-based combat games with a lot of walking,. Misconfigure your emulator's speed, and they get much snappier, and the pain of slogging back and forth is lessened.

       @foone @misty and the highest notes in the soundtrack all glitched low because someone forgot the top bit in the pitch register

       @foone @misty if you had an N64 and Pokémon Stadium, you could get this *officially* by unlocking speed multipliers for the GB Tower. The first upgrade was perfect for regular play, the second upgrade made grinding take no time at all
