What's your favorite way to play old games? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I was just thinking about how there's so many ways to play our old favorite games these days: Collecting for original hardware, playing ports and remasters on modern consoles, throwback consoles like the SNES Classic, having a dedicated emulation machine or handheld, etc.

What method works best for you? Has it changed over time?

I think for everything that is not best played with a CRT I head to emulation, HDMI compatible and especially handhelds I try to stick with original hardware (overall the DS format as it is odd while being emulated).
