Any games where a remaster could never stack up to the original.

Inspired by this post, asking the opposite, what games do you think are worthy of a remaster: https://lemmy.ml/post/6091201

ICO could never have the same impact on a flat screen.

heck most of the greats are great because they played with the limitations of the day and a 60fps widescreen release would just highlight the worst parts.

I've hooked up a 2600 to a widescreen before and seeing whats going on outside the 4:3 scanlines can be interesting but it's not a better experience than on a CRT.

Tbf, don't things like the 2600 basically just completely lag inputs on a flat screen since they were built with the crt scanning in mind?

idk, I still have one with an analog receiver which works exactly like you would expect.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Those work by converting analogue inputs to digital, which introduces some latency.
