      Old ass game systems where it’s practically impossible or expensive to get the physical games anymore, let alone the console, with some titles locked to those systems

      And if you do manage to acquire a physical copy Nintendo isn’t go to see any of the money you spent on it anyway

      Yep. If anyone is using emulators, I would suggest keeping a copy just in case this spills over to all emulators.

    Anyone recommend a Bluetooth controller for Android? I just tried emulating a GB game for the first time, and remembered that I hate soft keys.

      It’s not Bluetooth, but the Razer Kishi pro v2 is just absolutely wonderful! It even gives you a 3.5mm headphone port with a very capable amp!

      I use an 8bitdo pro 2. Over kill, probably but it works with lots of devices. Phone, switch, computer.

        I second this. If you already have one (or even a ps5 controller) then they are a perfect choice. I imagine a switch pro controller would work too, and you get the bonus of having a nice controller for your switch.

        If you don’t have one then 8bitdo is a safe choice

        I’ve got an xbox360 and a PS4 - nothing newer. I’ll have to buy SOMETHING, sadly. I do appreciate the suggestion ,though.

    the DMCA and it’s anti-circumvention clause has been a blight on consumers, can’t even fix trains without getting sued.
