    tbf the pixel art in old games was designed with CRT screens in mind. Some sprites / character portraits actually exploit the colour bleed to smooth out the image, an effect which is lost when you view it on an LCD screen. Also I have never had sex.

    Late 00s, early 2010s were the time to get old games because at that point they were still just considered outdated hardware. About 2015 is when "retro" game collecting became basically a big meme and prices either skyrocketed or second hand surplus was instantly depleted. You used to be able to just go to a thrift shop, yard sale or flea market and clean house on old stuff. Now shit's all scalped and put on the internet

    Yes, it's propped up by these dudes that demand PERFECT pixel and color accuracy on the 25-40yo games they never actually play. They don't play them. They just buy old and new ultra expensive gear to get the perfect image...just to get it, lol. My neighbor was one of these guys and never once played anything but his PS4. Never not once. He set it all up and then hopped on Fortnite and COD all night long. It's hilarious because even when I would goof on him a bit or seriously ask why he was so obsessive over games he didn't plah he said he just had to know he had it. Like if he wanted to play...Super Mario Brothers 2 on NES he could and could do it with it perfectly framed, colored, drawn and such. He had to have it. Emulation was out of the question. He'd rather drink poison, lol.
