>no DLC/Expansions
>no lootboxes/cash shops
>no need to buy current year+/-2 graphics card
>no annoying children ruining the expirience
>vibrant retro-speedrunning community
>active emulation subculture
>youtube community
>studied by computer science
>thousands of independent forums filled with real fans
>free ROM repositories
>requires actual skill to play

Modern Games:
>DLC/Microtransactions/lootboxes/Cash shop
>constant patches and fixes
>servers filled with bots and hackers
>owned by unethical companies milking their audience dry
>need Last Gen graphics cards to play
>skill required is learned in a week
>game community filled with shills, trolls and children
>speedrunning viewed as weird niche cult
>forums controlled by game-related companies
>studied by addiction specialists
>essentially a graphical skinner box
