    Yo, I totally agree. Signal boosting this.

    I only recently learned how much of a difference there is between even just playing an old game on a modern TV, and playing a game on the display is was made fo display on. This twitter account has opened my eyes:

    And honestly the pixel remasters will probably end up on Switch eventually.

    That comparison right there explains very well what I mean. I always tell my friends to stop taking jabs at older ps1 and SNES games just because they look like crap on your 4K monitors. You don't even have to get a CRT tv, just get an old enough computer monitor that can take RCA cables (this is what ps1 and SNES used to use for image transmission) and you're good to go; configure the resolution and you're playing the real FFVI.
