thoughts on emulation

[Peter1986]

ROMs are pretty much the only easy way to enjoy the original versions of a lot of great RPGs for the NES and SNES if you are born and raised in Europe, like I am.
I refuse to miss those titles just because some jackass decided that we shouldn't have games like Final Fantasy 1, Final Fantasy 4, Final Fantasy 6, Chrono Trigger and Super Mario RPG, just to name a small handful of them, and I am not interested in "remakes".

There have been occasions when I have got myself some adapters and other crap so I can play American cartridges;
however, nowadays I just stick with ROMs, they seem accurate enough based on what I have played on my friends' consoles and what SNES versions look like on various YouTube videos, complete with glitches and everything else that you would find on the console versions.

Also, I never ever use Save States or Cheats - I play ROMs exactly as I would play the original consoles, with a real controller and everything.
The only diffference is that I play them on an emulator instead of on a console.
