    I’m not a retro gamer, but I also don’t really understand the appeal of 1:1 PC ports - in my mind you’d either want to go for the full experience with the original console and controllers, the CRT TVs they were designed for etc, or if you really wanted to play it on a modern device emulators fit the bill perfectly. Is there something special about the original code being ported to x86? At least remasters try to take some advantage of that modern hardware, although I understand it’s not the “same” game
