Judging by the response to my post on games from the mid-2000s we’d like to see re-released or remastered, and a few comments about emulators, I did a bit of searching and found this article.
I then realized then that what I’m looking for is not remasters or remakes of every good game I’ve ever played, what’s I’m looking for is a master emulator system that lets me play any classic game I want exactly as they were published through my computer or console - something cloud gaming makes possible. These days you don’t need to hack your console or download a paid emulator for every era of game and platform, you just need to subscribe to a cloud-based emulator where all of these classic games can be purchased or rented. Any console company or PC game distributor like Steam that came up with a way to do that would make bank off of our collective nostalgia and desire to play these games one more time.
