>but the assertion of hardware in need of a tune up being a superior experience only serves to demonstrate your ignorance of why old hardware is deserving of upkeep and also why others play these games for reasons other than nostalgia.
This is meaningless and doesn't apply to anything I said.

>Ultimately, enjoyment is a matter of choosing a set that works with your level of technical skill
This guy is trying to posit that I'm retarded and creates a fantasy world where I've never had to crack open a CRT before because....
I said composite is superior to rgb.

He has to create a fantasy world to stroke his ego since his preference is to consume home console games in a way almost nobody (in the USA/Japan) consumed them. He has to position that I am simply a caveman retard and that he is in fact the connoisseur.
>While most people are perfectly fine emulating on a chinky flatscreen since they're not playing games at a level where input latency matters
Modern PC displays, especially gaming monitors, and even many new TVs have extremely minuscule input lag and high refresh rates. This point is mattering less and less every day. You also combed over the fact that this was in response to him saying "I'm not trying to relive the past by using a CRT". Well if he isn't, then there isn't a fucking point other than to be an aimless hobbyist.

You're a pretentious faggot who's dumped countless hours and resources to play retro "the best way" when in reality the best way is how we originally consumed them. Your post is self-fart sniffing of the highest order, over fucking tube televisions. Nobody fucking played home console games with RGB on professional monitors at home, period, over (in the USA and Japan). Furthermore, a majority of video games, especially between the 8 bit and 32 bit eras, were made with composite blending in mind.

Composite is king, it will always be king for retro (in most circumstances).

Any brand consumer CRT + composite is all you need. RGB and PVM is cringe
