It's usually the reverse in my experience. I love playing on original hardware when I have access, but some people get really anal when you emulate.

Agree. There's just something special about doing it the original way. Booting up that old console just like in the past, no matter if I had it back then or not.

That being said, I don't get the hate on emulation either. To each their own.
