With the current state of emulators I dont think there is any reason to play on CRT anymore

Ape Escape 3, Option Tuning Car Battle 2 etc. I get more happiness when I can enjoy these using wireless controller and anti aliasing than I'd get on CRT with wired controllers

But you can play emulators on a CRT you donut.

>>12537948
That makes me laugh because the PS2 one looks so legit lmao
>>
>>12538501
all of these are legit, they are dev kits

> I dont think there is any reason to play on CRT anymore
This is where you are missing that people who choose to go down the crt route are doing it because of muh feels. The elements that make up the gaming experience beyond the game itself are very real (see: why going to the cinema is not the same as watching a film on your laptop) and for some these elements are very important. For others said elements don't mean anything for for that crowd emulators are perfectly fine.

Why would I keep a fire hazard in my home tho. The filter looks fine to me
>>
>>12537948
That’s cool, I think you’re a faggot.

>I dont think there is any reason to play on CRT anymore
I had this same exactly opinion until I got a top tier CRT TV for free (Samsung TX-T2793H) and thought "let's try it... why not?!?"
The output imagery of those console are MEANT for CRT and the graphics, definition and motion clarity becomes insane...
I have an OLED display, a PC capable of running any emulated game at 10x resolution, with the most praised CRT-shaders, and, still, CRT is still on top.

Why do zoomers get so angry at how others play their games?
>>
>>12538685
Your fat ass is more of a fire hazard than a CRT
>>
>>12537948
I've played on emulators, and I also have a retrotink 4k.

6th gen is by far the best on a CRT no matter what you do. 7th gen looks nice with the tink 4k tho
>>
>>12537948
5th gen and back you want a CRT
7th gen and up benefit from higher resolutions/fps/more clarity
6th gen is either CRTs or upgrading visuals

>>12537948
That xbox controller looks like those cheap no named bootleg controls theyd sell at gamestop with all the l.e.d lights on them.
>>
>>12538685
shitposted the literally retarded fire hazard
>>
>>12538628
oh right lmao
That's cool
>>
>>12538670
More like downloading a film Vs buying it
>>
>>12538670
i bought a CRT in 2016 but I regret it
too heavy and it was not as great as I remember when I was a kid
Gamecube games on video component had major flaws
Composite helped hire the aliasing but composite really hurts 3D games, so I ended up selling my CRT
Besides sometimes my PS2 would stop working like when I was playing Ys felghana and I lost 5 hours of gameplay
>>
>>12538670
Why do you have a PS1 and PS2 hooked up to the same TV? The PS2 can play PS1 games. Unless you're a speedrunner for one of the very few games that can't run on a PS2, I am convinced this shit was done on purpose to troll.
>>
>>12538490
The problem with CRT is the price. It would take me a year of work to get $300 worth of disposable income.
>>
>>12537948
Nooo you have to play along with my delusion.that hanging on to a hunk of absolute garbage is something I can flex!!!

Light Gun Games.

It's not going to work. It isn't the 80s, 90s or early 00s anymore, you're an old man now and the fun zeitgeist we had back then is gone. Deep down you'll know it isn't the same.

>>12537948
>With the current state of emulators I dont think there is any reason to play on CRT anymore
Logically incoherent statement. the two things don't have anything to do with one another.
>>
>>12538685
The filter is not the emulator. You can use a filter/shader with real hardware.
>>
>>12538670
Neat, I used to have that stereo and speakers
>>
>>12539978
It has to be trolling - who the fuck would own both a ps1 and ps2? The ps1 is obsolete e-waste.
>>
>>12539978
Why are you posting on an 18+ board?
