Do you prefer playing previous generation games through something high tech such as modern day computers or playing through the "real thing" utilizing consoles from that generation (I.E. GameCube, Wii, etc)
The original consoles are great but some games are honestly more challenging without an emulator. I recently played Pikmin 2 on the gamecube and it was a little too blurry for me. But on an emulator, it was like a freshly-baked Tony Pastrami's Pepperoni Pizza straight from Columbus, OH.
