My friend and I collect old video games. I’m a But all my physical media just sits on my shelves and collects dust. Why do I even collect them? I literally just emulate everything. Is there a purpose to what I do? People ask me why I collect and I never have a real answer because I don’t even know. If I never play my stuff, is it worth just selling?
I have hard time seeing how emulation could become difficult or rare, they can’t get rid of what is already there. On the contrary, I feel it will continue to become more easy and widespread. It also kinda is illegal already, atleast the way most are using it.
