I’m a fan of original console and computer hardware playing games and running software on original systems. These devices won’t last forever so my goal is to try to preserve and compare original real hardware and show what gameplay was like on those systems. As you can imagine, getting access to original hardware is difficult and expensive so if you feel as passionate about genuine classic gaming hardware like I do, please consider becoming a patron or donating hardware for the cause! Thank you.
