Yea I never understood the appeal. You can get a steam deck with retroarch for just a little bit more. Like how many OG gameboy games are people still playing.

It's a preservation thing and a collectors item. As the hardware ages and begins to die, playing the games "as they were originally intended" becomes more and more inaccessible.
