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?

Cool! I want to play Baroque on PS1 in VR someday, if that becomes possible.

There'd be a good shot if the source code or a unity port was available, but a brief search tells me that's unlikely to pop up anytime soon.

Yeah, I think the most that would be possible is running Duckstation or something using a VR headset and controller, and not being able to turn in-game using motion controls.

I don't consider that a VR port, just playing a game using VR view. Lame.
