Why wouldn't you instead just run it in Duckstation where you can bump up the resolution, fix wobbly polygons, etc (???)

What sort of freak wants to besmirch their eyes with blurry original PS1 graphics? I lived through the PS1 era and you couldn't make me go back after decades of playing the games emulated

I swear half of this bullshit trend of companies rereleasing barely altered old games in a collection is just some copyright scheme to fuck with the emulation scene

"People emulate because thats the only way we can own half of these old games anymore."

"Ah yes but I released it agan on modern systems not long ago so emulating it is still super illegal."

"Oh, ok, I'll pay for it- wait you're charging $50 for a butchered version of a 30 year old game?"

What happened to the days where ports were like a couple bucks each?

If people can easily do something for free, you shouldn't be charging more than like a buck for it if it's older then 5 years IMO.
