Reject volatile tradition, embrace modernity: ~/Games/ROMs/Nintendo 64/

Also use a shitty CRT shader that mimics a broken black-and-white TV from the 50s for more tradition.

    Lug around an ancient, bulky, heavy, obsolete, actual progressive scan CRT for maximum tradition. Bonus points if it has a built-in VCR.

    Hey though, I found out an INCREDIBLY fun feature with those TV-VCR combos. It was really easy to record gameplay! :D

    I thought that was pretty neat at the time. Got to show my friends some fun console gaming antics before it was easy to capture / upload / send such things.

    That's not exactly how CRT's worked. They portrayed colors differently. Many people preferred their more vibrant colors. They effectively worked in inverse to today's TV in the sense of subtracting vs adding light / colors. I wish they still made them
