    Here I am, happy with my 10 yo desktop, playing games from my backlog, and teaching my kids to play Duck Tales and Dynablaster. Can’t wait for to introduce them to The Secret of Monkey Island and Sam and Max Hit the Road. From what I hear, most parents in my neighbourhood are doing something similar, so there’s little peer pressure to get the latest hardware to play the latest games.

      My best friends’ kid’s favorite console is an old laptop with N64 and Playstation emulators on it i gave them a while back. They call all the old games ‘real’ <franchise name>

      Like real Zelda, and real Mario cart.
